A diatomic gas \((\gamma=1.4)\) does \(200 \mathrm{~J}\) of work when it is expanded isobarically. The heat given to the gas in the process is _______.

  1. A  \(850 \mathrm{~J}\)
  2. B  \(800 \mathrm{~J}\)
  3. C  \(600 \mathrm{~J}\)
  4. D \(700 \mathrm{~J}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(700 \mathrm{~J}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\gamma=1+\frac{2}{f}=1.4 \Rightarrow \frac{2}{f}=0.4\) \(\Rightarrow f=5\) \(W=n R \Delta T=200 J\) \(Q=\left(\frac{f+2}{2}\right) n R \Delta T\) \(=\frac{7}{2} \times 200=700 J\)
