Question

An ideal gas, having ratio of specific heat γ undergoes a process in which its internal energy relates to the volume as U=αV where α is a constant. If the gas is expanded from volume V1toV2.

The work performed by gas is :

A

Solution

The correct option is B (A)2α(γ1)[V2V1]
U=αVHereU=Kineticenergyofidealgas
(55)b5
U=nCVT
nCVT=αV....(i)T=PVnR......(ii)
sub. (2) in (1)
(CVR).PV=αV
P=(α.RCV)1V
w=PdV=(αRCV)dVV
=[(α)(γ1).1(1/2)(V)]V2V1
w=2(α)(γ1)(V2V1)
Work done by the gas = w=2(α)
(γ1)(V2V1)
