उत्तर
Given:
γ = 1.5
T = 300 K
Initial volume of the gas, V1 = 1 L
Final volume, V2 = `1/2` L
(a) The process is adiabatic because volume is suddenly changed; so, no heat exchange is allowed.
P1V1γ = P2V2γ
Or `"P"_2 ="P"_1("V"_1/"V"_2)^gamma = "P"_1(2)^gamma`
`"P"_2/"P"_1 = 2^1.5 = 2 sqrt2`
(b) P1 = 100 kPa = 105 Pa
and P2 = `2sqrt2` × 105 Pa
Work done by an adiabatic process,
`"W" = ("P"_1"V"_1 - "P"_2"V"_2)/(gamma - 1)`
`"W" = (10^5 xx 10^-3 -2sqrt2 xx 10^5 xx 1/2 xx 10^-3)/(1.5 -1)`
W = -82 J
(c) Internal energy,
dQ = 0, as it is an adiabatic process.
⇒ dU = − dW = − (− 82 J) = 82 J
(d)
Also, for an adiabatic process,
T1V1γ−1 = T2V2γ−1
`"T"_2 ="T"_1 ("V"_1/"V"_2)^(gamma -1)`
= 300 × (2)0.5
`= 300 xx sqrt 2 xx = 300 xx 1..4142`
T2= 424 K
(e) The pressure is kept constant.
The process is isobaric; so, work done = PΔV=nRdT.
Here, n = `("P""V")/("R""T") = (10^5 xx 10 ^-3)/("R" xx 300) = 1/(3"R")`
So, work done =`1/(3"R") xx "R" xx (300-424) = -41.4"J"`
As pressure is constant,
`"V"_1/"T"_1 = "V"_2/"T"_2 ... (1)`
`"V" _1 = "V"_2("T"_1)/"T"_2`
(f)Work done in an isothermal process,
`"W" = "n""R""T" "l""n" "V"_2/"V"_1`
= `1/(3"R") xx "R" xx "T" xx ln (2)`
= 100 × ln 2 = 100 × 1.039
= 103 J
(g) Net work done (using first law of thermodynamics)
= − 82 − 41.4 + 103
= − 20.4 J
