A glass bulb can withstand a pressure of 2 atm. It constains air at a temperature of 303 K and at one atmospheric pressure. What is the temperature at which the bulb bursts ? (Neglect the expansion of the bulb) `gamma = 1.4`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the temperature at which the glass bulb bursts, we can use the principles of thermodynamics, specifically the adiabatic process for an ideal gas. Given that the maximum pressure the bulb can withstand is 2 atm and the initial conditions are 1 atm and 303 K, we can apply the adiabatic relation. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Identify Initial and Final Conditions:** - Initial Pressure, \( P_1 = 1 \, \text{atm} \) - Final Pressure, \( P_2 = 2 \, \text{atm} \) - Initial Temperature, \( T_1 = 303 \, \text{K} \) ...
