An insulated cylindrical vessel filled with an insulated piston of negligible weight and negligible thickness at the mid point of the vessel. The cylinder contains a gas at \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). When the gas is heated to \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), the piston moves through a length of \(5 \mathrm{~cm}\). Length of the cylindrical vessel in \(\mathrm{cm}\) is

  1. A \(13.65\)
  2. B \(27.3\)
  3. C \(38.6\)
  4. D \(64.6\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(27.3\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

According to question, \(\begin{array}{rlrl} & \therefore & \frac{273}{L / 2} & =\frac{373}{(L / 2)+5} \\ \Rightarrow & 273\left(\frac{L}{2}+5\right) & =373\left(\frac{L}{2}\right)\end{array}\) or \(\quad 273 \times 5=100\left(\frac{L}{2}\right)\) or \(L=27.3 \mathrm{~cm}\)
