An ideal monoatomic gas is confined in a...

An ideal monoatomic gas is confined in a horizontal cylinder by a spring loaded piston (as shown in the figure). Initially the gas is at temperature `T_1`, pressure `P_1` and volume `V_1`and the spring is in its relaxed state. The gas is then heated very slowly to temperature `T_2`,pressure `P_2`and volume `V_2`. During this process the piston moves out by a distance x. Ignoring the friction between the piston and the cylinder, the correct statement (s) is (are)

A

If `V_(2) = 2V_(1) "and" T_(2) = 3T_(1)`, then the energy stored in the spring is `(1)/(4)P_(1)V_(1)`

B

If `V_(2) = 2V_(1) "and" T_(2) = 3T_(1)`, then the change in internal energy is `3P_(1)V_(1)`

C

If `V_(2) = 3V_(1) "and" T_(2) = 4T_(1)`, then the work done by the gas is `(7)/(3)P_(1)V_(1)`

D

If `V_(2) = 3V_(1) "and" T_(2) = 4T_(1)`, then the heat supplied to the gas is `(17)/(6)P_(1)V_(1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`(P_(1)V_(1))/(T_(1)) = (P_(2)V_(2))/(T_(2))`
If `V_(2) = 2V_(1)` & `T_(2) = 3T_(1)`
`implies P_(2) = (3)/(2)P_(1)`
`DeltaU = (f)/(2)(nRDeltaT) = (3)/(2)(P_(2)V_(2) - P_(1)V_(1))`
`= (3)/(2) xx 2P_(1)V_(1) = 3P_(1)V_(1)`

An ideal monatomic gas is confined in a cylinder by a spring-loaded piston of cross-section 8.0xx10^-3m^2 . Initially the gas is at 300K and occupies a volume of 2.4xx10^-3m^3 and the spring is in its relaxed (unstretched, unompressed) state, fig. The gas is heated by a small electric heater until the piston moves out slowly by 0.1m. Calculate the final temperature of the gas and the heat supplied (in joules) by the heater. The force constant of the spring is 8000 N//m , atmospheric pressure is 1.0xx10^5 Nm^-2 . The cylinder and the piston are thermally insulated. The piston is massless and there is no friction between the piston and the cylinder. Neglect heat loss through lead wires of the heater. The heat capacity of the heater coil is negligible. Assume the spring to be massless.
