31. (JEE Main 2016 (Online) 9th April Morning Slot )

The ratio of work done by an ideal monoatomic gas to the heat supplied to it in an isobaric process is :

(A) 3 5

(B) 3 5

(C) 3 2

(D) 2 5

Correct answer is (D)

In an isobaric process,

Heat supplied, Q = n Cp Δ T

Work done, w = nR Δ T

   Ratio = w Q = n R Δ T n C p Δ T

=    R 5 2 R

=    2 5

[Cp = 5 2 R for monoatomic gas]

32. (JEE Main 2014 (Offline) )

One mole of a diatomic ideal gas undergoes a cyclic process A B C as shown in figure. The process B C is adiabatic. The temperatures at A , B and C are 400 K , 800 K and 600 K respectively. Choose the correct statement : JEE Main 2014 (Offline) Physics - Heat and Thermodynamics Question 298 English

(A) The change in internal energy in whole cyclic process is 250 R .

(B) The change in internal energy in the process C A is 700 R .

(C) The change in internal energy in the process A B is - 350 R .

(D) The change in internal energy in the process B C is - 500 R .

Correct answer is (D)

In cyclic process, change in total internal energy is zero.
Δ U c y c l i c = 0
Δ U B C = n C v Δ T = 1 × 5 R 2 Δ T

where, C v = molar specific heat at constant volume.
For B C , Δ T = 200 K
Δ U B C = 500 R

JEE Main 2013 (Offline) Physics - Heat and Thermodynamics Question 299 English

The above p - v diagram represents the thermodynamic cycle of an engine, operating with an ideal monatomic gas. The amount of heat, extracted from the source in a single cycle is

(A) p 0 v 0

(B) ( 13 2 ) p 0 v 0

(C) ( 11 2 ) p 0 v 0

(D) 4 p 0 v 0

Correct answer is (B)

Along path DA, volume is constant.

Hence, Δ QDA = nCv Δ T = nCv(TA – TD)

Δ QDA = n ( 3 2 R ) [ 2 p 0 v 0 n R p 0 v 0 n R ] = 3 2 p 0 v 0

Along the path AB, pressure is constant.

Hence Δ QAB = nCp Δ T = nCp(TB – TA)

Δ QAB = n ( 5 2 R ) [ 2 p 0 2 v 0 n R 2 p 0 v 0 n R ] = 10 2 p 0 v 0

The amount of heat extracted from the source in a single cycle is

Δ Q = Δ QDA + Δ QAB

= 3 2 p 0 v 0 + 10 2 p 0 v 0 = ( 13 2 ) p 0 v 0

34. (AIEEE 2011 )

100 g of water is heated from 30 C to 50 C . Ignoring the slight expansion of the water, the change in its internal energy is (specific heat of water is 4184 J / k g / K ):

(A) 8.4 k J

(B) 84 k J

(C) 2.1 k J

(D) 4.2 k J

Correct answer is (A)

Δ U = Δ Q = m c Δ T
= 100 × 10 3 × 4184 ( 50 30 ) 8.4 k J

35. (AIEEE 2009 )

Two moles of helium gas are taken over the cycle A B C D , as shown in the P - T diagram. AIEEE 2009 Physics - Heat and Thermodynamics Question 303 English

The work done on the gas in taking it from D to A is :

(A) + 414 R

(B) 690 R

(C) + 690 R

(D) 414 R

Correct answer is (A)

Work done by the system in the isothermal process
D A is W = 2.303 n R T log 10 P D P A
= 2.303 × 2 R × 300 log 10 1 × 10 5 2 × 10 5 = 414 R .
Therefore work done on the gas is + 414 R .
