Thermodynamics - Result Question 15

16. A monoatomic gas at a pressure P, having a volume V expands isothermally to a volume 2V and then adiabatically to a volume 16V. The final pressure of the gas is : (. take .γ=53)

[2014]

(a) 64P

(b) 32P

(c) P64

(d) 16P

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 16. (c)

Solution:

  1. (c) For isothermal process P1V1=P2V2

PV=P2(2V)P2=P2

For adiabatic process

P2V2γ=P3V3γ.(P2)(2v)γ=P316v)γP3=32(18)5/3=P64
