Solution:
- Given,
, is constant
Using ideal gas equation,
i.e a polytropic process with
(Polytropic process means,
We know that, work done in a polytropic process is given by
and,
Here,
Now, for monoatomic gas change in internal energy is given by
Using first law of thermodynamics, heat absorbed by one mole gas is
