A solid body of constant heat capacity 1...

A solid body of constant heat capacity `1J//^@C` is being heated by keeping it contact with reservoirs in two ways:
(i) Sequentially keeping in contact with 2 reservoirs such that each reservoir supplies same amount of heat.
(ii) Sequentially keeping in contact with 8 reservoir such that each reservoir supplies same amount of heat.
In both the cases body is brought from initial temperature `100^C` to final temperature `200^@C`. Entropy change of the body in the tow cases respectively is :

A

In2, In 2

B

In2, 2In2

C

2In2, 8In2

D

In2, 4In2

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to calculate the entropy change of the body in both cases where it is heated by different numbers of reservoirs. The body has a constant heat capacity of \( C = 1 \, \text{J/°C} \), and it is being heated from an initial temperature \( T_i = 100 \, \text{°C} \) to a final temperature \( T_f = 200 \, \text{°C} \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Calculate the Change in Temperature:** \[ \Delta T = T_f - T_i = 200 \, \text{°C} - 100 \, \text{°C} = 100 \, \text{°C} \] 2. **Calculate the Heat Supplied to the Body:** The heat \( Q \) supplied to the body can be calculated using the formula: \[ Q = C \cdot \Delta T \] Substituting the values: \[ Q = 1 \, \text{J/°C} \cdot 100 \, \text{°C} = 100 \, \text{J} \] 3. **Calculate the Entropy Change for Each Reservoir Case:** The entropy change \( \Delta S \) for a body when it absorbs heat \( Q \) at a constant temperature \( T \) is given by: \[ \Delta S = \frac{Q}{T} \] However, since the body is heated sequentially by different reservoirs, we need to consider the average temperature at which the heat is absorbed. - **For Case (i): Two Reservoirs:** Each reservoir supplies half of the total heat: \[ Q_1 = Q_2 = \frac{Q}{2} = \frac{100 \, \text{J}}{2} = 50 \, \text{J} \] The average temperature for the first reservoir (from \( 100 \, \text{°C} \) to \( 150 \, \text{°C} \)) is: \[ T_1 = \frac{100 + 150}{2} = 125 \, \text{°C} = 398.15 \, \text{K} \] The average temperature for the second reservoir (from \( 150 \, \text{°C} \) to \( 200 \, \text{°C} \)) is: \[ T_2 = \frac{150 + 200}{2} = 175 \, \text{°C} = 448.15 \, \text{K} \] The total entropy change for the two reservoirs is: \[ \Delta S_1 = \frac{50}{398.15} + \frac{50}{448.15} \] - **For Case (ii): Eight Reservoirs:** Each reservoir supplies: \[ Q_i = \frac{Q}{8} = \frac{100 \, \text{J}}{8} = 12.5 \, \text{J} \] The average temperatures for each reservoir will be calculated similarly, but since there are more reservoirs, the average temperature will vary more gradually. The total entropy change will be: \[ \Delta S_2 = \sum_{i=1}^{8} \frac{Q_i}{T_i} \] 4. **Final Calculation:** After calculating the individual contributions for both cases, we can summarize the total entropy changes \( \Delta S_1 \) and \( \Delta S_2 \).
