  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Air is filled ina motor car tube at $$27^oC$$ temperature and $$2\ atm$$ pressure. If the tube suddenly bursts then the final temperature will be [given $$(1/2)^{2/7} = 0.82$$]
    Solution
    For an adiabatic process:
    $$P^{1-\gamma}T^{\gamma} = constant$$
    Initial pressure and temperatures are:
    2atm and 300K respectively.
    After the explosion the final pressure is 1atm
    $$P_{1}^{1-\gamma}T_{1}^{\gamma} = P_{2}^{1-\gamma}T_{2}^{\gamma}$$ 
    For air, majority of the gas is nitrogen which is diatomic
    Hence $$\gamma = \dfrac{7}{2}$$

    $$(2atm)^{1-(7/2)}(300)^{(7/2)} = (1\ atm)^{1-(7/2)}(T_{2}^{(7/2)})$$
    i.e. We get $$T_{2} = 246K$$ 
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    $$1\ g$$ mole of an ideal gas at $$STP$$ is subjected to a reversible adiabatic expansion to double its volume. Find the change in internal energy ($$\gamma = 1.4$$ )
    Solution
    As it is an adiabatic process we use
    $$T_1{ V }_{1  }^{ \gamma-1 }= T_2{V}_{2}^{\gamma - 1}$$
    or $$T_2 =\displaystyle\dfrac {T_1  { V }_{1  }^{ \gamma-1 } }{ { V }_{2  }^{\gamma-1  } } = \dfrac{273}{(2)^{0.4}}  = 207 K$$
    Change the Internal Energy $$\displaystyle \Delta U= \dfrac{R}{(\gamma-1)}(T_1-T_2)$$
    $$=\displaystyle \dfrac{8.31(273-207)}{1.4-1} = 1369.5  J$$
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Variation of molar specific heat of a metal with temperature is best depicted by 
    Solution
    For  $$T\rightarrow 0$$  =, that is, at low temperature, molar specific heat $$\propto$$ T$$^3$$ and high temperature it becomes constant = $$3 R$$. This is given by $$\text{Dulong and Petit law}$$.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    A mass of ideal gas at pressure $$P$$ is expanded isothermally to four times the original volume and then slowly compressed adiabatically to its original volume. Assuming $$\gamma$$ to be $$1.5$$, the new pressure of gas is
    Solution
    Let $$P$$ and $$V$$ be the initial pressure and volume of ideal gas. After isothermal expansion, pressure is $$P/4$$. So volume is $$4 V$$.
    Let $$P_1$$ be the pressure after adiabatic compression then
    $$P_1 V^{\gamma} = (P/4)(4V)^{\gamma}$$
    $$P_1 = (\dfrac{P}{4}) (4)^{3/2} = 2P$$
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    The pressure inside a tyre is $$4$$ times that of atmosphere. If the tyre burst suddenly at temperature $$300 K$$, what will be the new temperature?
    Solution
    Under adiabatic change
    $$\displaystyle{\frac{T_2}{T_1} = \left(\dfrac{P_1}{P_2}\right)^{\frac{1 - \gamma}{\gamma}}}$$
    or $$\displaystyle{T_2 = T_1 (\dfrac{P_1}{P_2})^{(\frac{1- \gamma}{\gamma})}}$$
    $$\therefore$$$$\displaystyle{T_2 = 300(4)^{\frac{1-(7/5)}{7/5}}}$$; $$\gamma = 1.4 = 7/5$$ for air
    or $$T_2 = 300 (4)^{-2/7}$$
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    At $$27^{o}C$$ a gas is compressed suddenly such that its pressure becomes ($$\dfrac{1}{8}$$)th of original pressure. Final temperature will be ($$\gamma$$ = 5/3)
    Solution
    since gas is compressed suddenly, gas is undergone an adiabatic process
    In adiabatic process,
    $$P{ V }^{ \gamma  }=constant$$
    for an ideal gas,
    $$\dfrac { PV }{ T } =constant$$
    $$\therefore P{ (\dfrac { T }{ P } ) }^{ \gamma  }={ P }^{ 1-\gamma  }{ T }^{ \gamma  }=constant$$
    $$\therefore { { P }_{ 1 } }^{ 1-(5/3) }{ { T }_{ 1 } }^{ 5/3 }={ (\dfrac { { P }_{ 1 } }{ 8 } ) }^{ 1-(5/3) }{ T }^{ 5/3 }$$
    $$\dfrac { 300 }{ T } ={ 4 }^{3/5 }$$
    $$T=130.58K={ -142.58 }^{ \circ  }C$$
    Hence, option C is correct
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    A diatomic gas initially at $$18^{o}C$$ is compressed adiabatically to one eightth of its original volume. The temperature after compression will be
    Solution
    $$T_1 = 18^{o}C = (273 + 18) = 291\ K$$
    and $$V_2 = V_1/8$$

    We know that $$TV^{\gamma - 1}$$ = constant
    or, $$T_2V_2^{\gamma - 1} = T_1V_1^{\gamma - 1}$$
    $$\displaystyle{T_2 = T_1\left(\dfrac{V_1}{V_2}\right)^{\gamma - 1} = 291 \times (8)^{1.4 - 1}}= 668.5 K = 395.5^{o}C$$ 
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    A perfect gas goes from state A to another state B by absorbing $$8 \times 10^5J$$ of heat and doing $$6.5 \times 10^5J$$ of external work. It is now transferred between the same two states in another process in which it absorbs $$10^5J$$ of heat. In the second process
    Solution
    $$dU = dQ - dW = (8 \times 10^{5} - 6.5 \times 10^{5} ) = 1.5 \times 10^{5}J$$
    $$dW = dQ - dU = 10^{5} - 1.5\times 10^{5} = - 0.5 \times 10^{5}J$$
    - ve sign indicates that work done on the gas is $$0.5 \times 10^5J$$
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    $$80\ g$$ of water at $$30^o C$$ is poured on large block of ice at $$0^{\circ}$$C. The mass of ice that melts is
    Given, Latent heat = $$334\ J/g$$
    Specific heat of water $$= 4.2 Jg^{-1}C^{o-1}$$
    Solution
    $$\Delta T=30^oC$$
    Heat released by water is abosrbed by ice ,the final temperature of water will be $$0^oC$$
    $$\Rightarrow 8\times1\times30=m\times80$$
    $$\Rightarrow m=30g$$
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    The volume of a gas is reduced adiabatically to $$\dfrac{1}{4}$$ of its volume at $$27^{o}C$$. If $$\gamma= 1.4$$ the new temperature is :
    Solution
    For an adiabatic change,
    $$TV^{\gamma -1} =constant$$.....................(1)
    where $$\gamma $$ is ratio of specific heats of gas.
    From (1),
    $$T_1V_1^{\gamma -1} =T_2V_2^{\gamma -1}$$
    Here , $$T_1= 300K$$ , $$V_1=V$$ , $$V_2 =\dfrac{V}{4}$$
    So, $$T_2 =( \dfrac{V_1}{V_2})^{\gamma -1}*1$$
    putting the values , we get
     $$T_2 =300(4)^{0.4} K$$
