Two pistons having low thermal conductivity divide an adiabatic container in three equal parts as shown An ideal gas is present in the three parts AB&C having initial pressures as shown and same temperatures Now the pistons are releasef Then the final equilibrium length of part A after long time will be

A

`L//8`

B

`L//4`

C

`L//6`

D

`L//5`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`n=(PV)/(RT)` Final pressure & temperature is same hence volume will be in ratio of number of moles.

A diathermic piston divides adiabatic cylinder of volume V0 into two equal parts as shown in the figure. Both parts contain ideal monoatomic gases. The initial pressure and temperature of gas in left compartment are P0 and T0 while that in right compartment are 2P0 and 2T0. Initially the piston is kept fixed and the system is allowed to acquire a state of thermal equilibrium. The pressure in left compartment after thermal equilibrium is achieved is

A diathermic piston divides adiabatic cylinder of volume V0 into two equal parts as shown in the figure. Both parts contain ideal monoatomic gases. The initial pressure and temperature of gas in left compartment are P0 and T0 while that in right compartment are 2P0 and 2T0. Initially the piston is kept fixed and the system is allowed to acquire a state of thermal equilibrium. If the pin which was keeping the piston fixed is removed and the piston is allowed to slide slowly such that a state of mechanical equilibrium is achieved. The volume of left compartment when piston is in equilibrium is

A weightless piston divides a thermally insulated cylinder into two equal parts. One part contains one mole of an ideal gas with adiabatic exponent gamma , the other is evacuated. The initial gas temperature is T_0 . The piston is released and the gas fills the whole volume of the cylinder. Then the piston is slowly displaced back to the initial position. Find the increment of the internal energy and entropy of the gas was resulting from these two processes.

A piston can freely move inside a horizontal cylinder closed from both ends. Initially, the piston separates the inside space of the cylinder into two equal parts each of volmek V_0 in which an ideal gas is contained under the same pressure p_0 and at the same temperature. What work has to be performed in order to increase isothermally the volume of one part of gas eta times compared to that of the other by slowly moving the piston ?

Following figure shows on adiabatic cylindrical container of volume V_(0) divided by an adiabatic smooth piston (area of cross-section = A ) in two equal parts. An ideal gas (C_(p)//C_(y)=lambda) is at pressure P and temperature T in left part and gas at pressure P and temperature T in right part. The piston is slowly displaced and released at a position where it can stay in equilibrium. The final pressure of the two parts will be (Suppose x = displacement of the piston)

Consider a gas enclosed in a container. If two divide the container into three equal parts partition, then which of each of the following properties of gas will have the same value is each of the compartment?

(i) A conducting piston divides a closed thermally insulated cylinder into two equal parts. The piston can slide inside the cylinder without friction. The two parts of the cylinder contain equal number of moles of an ideal gas at temperature T_(0) . An external agent slowly moves the piston so as to increase the volume of one part and decrease that of the other. Write the gas temperature as a function of ratio (beta) of the volumes of the larger and the smaller parts. The adiabatic exponent of the gas is gamma . (ii) In a closed container of volume V there is a mixture of oxygen and helium gases. The total mass of gas in the container is m gram. When Q amount of heat is added to the gas mixture its temperature rises by Delta T . Calculate change in pressure of the gas.

A container with insulating walls is divided into two equal parts by a partition fitted with a valve. One part is filled with an ideal gas at a pressure P and temperature T, whereas the other part is completely evacuated . If the valve is suddenly opened, the pressure and temperature of the gas will be
