Which of the processes described below are irreversible?
(a) The increase in temperature of an iron rod by hammering it.
(b) A gas in a small container at a temperature \(T_1\) is brought in contact with a big reservoir at a higher temperature \(T_2\) which increases the temperature of the gas.
(c) A quasi-static isothermal expansion of an ideal gas in a cylinder fitted with a frictionless piston.
(d) An ideal gas is enclosed in a piston-cylinder arrangement with adiabatic walls. A weight \(w\) is added to the piston, resulting in the compression of gas.
Choose the correct alternative/s:
1. (a), (b), (c) 2. (a), (d)
3. (b), (c), (d) 4. (a), (b), (d)

Consider two containers A and B containing identical gases at the same pressure, volume and temperature. The gas in container A is compressed to half of its original volume isothermally while the gas in container B is compressed to half of its original value adiabatically. The ratio of final pressure of gas in B to that of gas in A is
1. \(2^{\gamma-1} \)
2. \(\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\gamma-1} \)
3. \(\left(\frac{1}{1-\gamma}\right)^2 \)
4. \(\left(\frac{1}{\gamma-1}\right)^2\)
