One litre of an ideal gas at a pressure ...

One litre of an ideal gas at a pressure of 6 atm undergoes an adiabatic expansion until its pressure drops to one atmosphere and volume increases to 2 litre. Find the word done during the process. `[ gamma = 1.4].`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the work done during the adiabatic expansion of an ideal gas, we can use the formula for work done in an adiabatic process: \[ W = \frac{1}{\gamma - 1} (P_1 V_1 - P_2 V_2) \] where: - \( W \) = work done - \( P_1 \) = initial pressure - \( V_1 \) = initial volume ...
