Two cylinders A and B fitted with pistons contain equal amounts of an ideal diatomic gas at 300K. The piston of A is free to move, while that B is held fixed. The same amount of heat is given to the gas in each cylinder. If the rise in temperature of the gas in A is 30K, then the rise in temperature of the gas in B is

A

`30K`

B

`10K`

C

`50K`

D

`42K`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

For constant pressure process `Q`
= `nC_(p)DeltaT= 30nC_(p)`
For constant volume process `Q`
= `nC_(V)DeltaT = n((5)/(7) C_(p)) DeltaT implies DeltaT = 42 ^(@)C = 42K`

Two identical containers A and B with frictionless pistons contain the same ideal gas at the same temperature and the same velocity V. The mass of the gas in A is m_A, and that in B is m_B . The gas in each cylinder is now allowed to expand isothermally to the same final volume 2V. The changes in the pressure in A and B are found to be DeltaP and 1.5 DeltaP respectively. Then

A weightless piston divides a thermally insulated cylinder into two parts of volumes V and 3V. 2 moles of an ideal gas at pressure P = 2 atmosphere are confined to the part with volume V =1 litre. The remainder of the cylinder is evacuated. The piston is now released and the gas expands to fill the entire space of the cylinder. The piston is then pressed back to the initial position. Find the increase of internal energy in the process and final temperature of the gas. The ratio of the specific heats of the gas, gamma =1.5 .

A diatomic gas is enclosed in a vessel fitted with massless movable piston. Area of cross section of vessel is 1m^2 . Initial height of the piston is 1m (see the figure). The initial temperature of the gas is 300K. The temperature of the gas is increased to 400K, keeping pressure constant, calculate the new height of the piston. The piston is brought to its initial position with no heat exchange. Calculate the final temperature of the gas. You can leave answer in fraction.
