Consider a spherical shell of radius R at temperature T. The black body radiation inside it can be considered as an ideal gas of photons with internal energy per unit volume `u=U/V propT^4` and pressure `P=1/3(U/V)`. If the shell now undergoes an adiabatic expansion the relation between T and R is :

A

`T alpha (1)/(R)`

B

`T alpha (1)/(R^(3))`

C

` T alpha e^(-R)`

D

`T alpha e^(-3R)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`P= (1)/(3)((U)/(V))`
`P alpha T^(4) "using" PV = nRT`
`(1)/(V) alpha T^(3)`
`implies T alpha(1)/(R)`

An ideal monoatomic gas is confined in a horizontal cylinder by a spring loaded piston (as shown in the figure). Initially the gas is at temperature T_1 , pressure P_1 and volume V_1 and the spring is in its relaxed state. The gas is then heated very slowly to temperature T_2 ,pressure P_2 and volume V_2 . During this process the piston moves out by a distance x. Ignoring the friction between the piston and the cylinder, the correct statement (s) is (are)

The relation between internal energy U , pressure P and volume V of a gas in an adiabatic processes is : U = a+ bPV where a = b = 3 . Calculate the greatest integer of the ratio of specific heats [gamma] .

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 .

According to Stefan's law of radiation, a black body radiates energy sigmaT^(4) from its unit surface area every second where T is the surface temperature of the black body and sigma=5.67xx10^(-8)W//m^(2)K^(4) is known as Stefan's constant. A nuclear weapon may be thought of as a ball of radius 0.5 m. When detonated, it reaches temperature of 10^(6) K and can be treated as a black body. If all this energy U is in the form of radiation, corresponding momentum is p=U/c . How much momentum per unit time does it impart on unit area at a distance of 1 km ?

Consider an ideal gas confined in an isolated closed chamber. As the gas undergoes an adiabatic expansion, the average time of collision between molecules increase as V^q , where V is the volume of the gas. The value of q is : (gamma=(C_p)/(C_v))

A gaseous mixture enclosed in a vessel of volume V consists of one gram mole of gas A with gamma = (C_(P))/(C_(V)) = (5)/(3) an another gas B with gamma = (7)/(5) at a certain temperature T . The gram molecular weights of the gases A and B are 4 and 32 respectively. The gases A and B do not react with each other and are assumed to be ideal. The gaseous mixture follows the equation PV^(19//13) = constant , in adiabatic process. Find the number of gram moles of the gas B in the gaseous mixture.

Consider a hypothetical situation where we are comparing the properties of two crystals made of atom A and atom B . Potential energy (U) v//s interatomic separation (r) graph for atom A and atom B is shown in figure (i) and (ii) and respectively.

Three moles of an ideal gas (C_p=7/2R) at pressure, P_A and temperature T_A is isothermally expanded to twice its initial volume. It is then compressed at constant pressure to its original volume.
