Question


One mole of an ideal diatomic gas is taken through the cycle as shown in the figure:

12: isochoric process
23: a straight line of P-V diagram
31: isobaric process

The average molecular speed of the gas in the states 1,2 and 3 in the ratio:

Solution

The correct option is A 1:2:2
State 1
Let temperature be To
State 2
Since 1-2 is isochoric process PT=Constant
Thus Temperature=4To

State 3
Since 3-1 is an isobaric process VT=Constant
Thus Temperature=4To
The average molecular speed is directly proportional to RTM
vT
Hence
State1vTo
State2v4To=2To
State3v4To=2To
Ratio=1:2:2
Thus (a) is the correct answer.
