JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 12 . kinetic theory of gases

\(1\) mole of rigid diatomic gas performs a work of \(Q / 5\) when heat \(Q\) is supplied to it. The molar heat capacity of the gas during this transformation is \(\frac{ x R }{8},\) The value of \(x\) is \(\ldots \ldots \ldots .\) \([ K =\) universal gas constant \(]\)

  1. A \(30\)
  2. B \(25\)
  3. C \(36\)
  4. D \(45\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(25\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(Q =\Delta U + W\) \(Q =\Delta U +\frac{ Q }{5}\) \(\Delta U =\frac{4 Q }{5}\) \(nC _{ v } \Delta T =\frac{4}{5} nC \Delta T\) \(\frac{5}{4} C_{v}=C\) \(C=\frac{5}{4}\left(\frac{f}{2}\right) R=\frac{5}{4}\left(\frac{5}{2}\right) R\) \(C =\frac{25}{8} R\) \(x =25\)
