The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given process where \( pV^2 = \text{constant} \) and determine the implications of an increase in the temperature of the gas. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Process**: The equation \( pV^2 = \text{constant} \) indicates a specific thermodynamic process. We can rewrite this in terms of the ideal gas law, \( pV = nRT \), where \( n \) is the number of moles, \( R \) is the gas constant, and \( T \) is the temperature. 2. **Relating Pressure, Volume, and Temperature**: From the equation \( pV^2 = \text{constant} \), we can express pressure \( p \) as: \[ p = \frac{\text{constant}}{V^2} \] Substituting this into the ideal gas law gives us: \[ \frac{\text{constant}}{V^2} \cdot V = nRT \] Simplifying this, we find: \[ T = \frac{\text{constant}}{nR} \cdot \frac{1}{V} \] This shows that temperature \( T \) is inversely proportional to volume \( V \). 3. **Effect of Increasing Temperature**: If the temperature \( T \) of the gas is increased, according to the relationship derived, the volume \( V \) must decrease in order to maintain the constant value of \( pV^2 \). 4. **Change in Internal Energy**: The internal energy \( U \) of an ideal gas is directly proportional to its temperature. Therefore, if the temperature increases, the internal energy will also increase, leading to a positive change in internal energy: \[ \Delta U > 0 \] 5. **Work Done by the Gas**: Work done \( W \) by the gas is given by: \[ W = P \Delta V \] Since the volume \( V \) is decreasing (as established earlier), \( \Delta V < 0 \). Therefore, the work done by the gas is negative: \[ W < 0 \] 6. **Heat Transfer**: For a polytropic process, the heat transfer \( Q \) can be related to the change in internal energy and work done: \[ Q = \Delta U + W \] Since \( \Delta U > 0 \) and \( W < 0 \), the overall heat transfer \( Q \) will be positive, indicating that heat is being added to the gas. ### Conclusion: - **Change in Internal Energy**: Positive - **Work Done by the Gas**: Negative - **Heat Transfer**: Positive (heat is added to the gas) ### Final Answer: The correct options are: 1. Change in the internal energy of the gas is positive. 2. Work done by the gas is negative. 3. Heat is given to the gas.
