JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 11. thermodynamics

The pressure and volume of an ideal gas are related as \(\mathrm{PV}^{3 / 2}=\mathrm{K}\) (Constant). The work done when the gas is taken from state \(A\left(P_1, V_1, T_1\right)\) to state \(\mathrm{B}\left(\mathrm{P}_2, \mathrm{~V}_2, \mathrm{~T}_2\right)\) is _______.

  1. A \(2\left(\mathrm{P}_1 \mathrm{~V}_1-\mathrm{P}_2 \mathrm{~V}_2\right)\)
  2. B \(2\left(\mathrm{P}_2 \mathrm{~V}_2-\mathrm{P}_1 \mathrm{~V}_1\right)\)
  3. C \(2\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{P}_1} V_1-\sqrt{\mathrm{P}_2} V_2\right)\)
  4. D \(2\left(\mathrm{P}_2 \sqrt{\mathrm{V}_2}-\mathrm{P}_1 \sqrt{\mathrm{V}_1}\right)\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(2\left(\mathrm{P}_1 \mathrm{~V}_1-\mathrm{P}_2 \mathrm{~V}_2\right)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For \(\mathrm{PV}^{\mathrm{x}}=\) constant If work done by gas is asked then \({W}=\frac{\mathrm{nR} \Delta \mathrm{T}}{1-\mathrm{x}}\) Here x \(=\frac{3}{2}\) \( W =\frac{\mathrm{P}_2 \mathrm{~V}_2-\mathrm{P}_1 \mathrm{~V}_1}{-\frac{1}{2}}\)…
