TS EAMCET · Physics · Kinetic Theory of Gases

The volume of one mole of the gas is changed from \(V\) to \(2 V\) at constant pressure \(p\). If \(\gamma\) is the ratio of specific heats of the gas, change in internal energy of the gas is

  1. A \(\frac{r . p V}{\gamma-1}\)
  2. B \(\frac{r}{\gamma-1}\)
  3. C \(p V\)
  4. D \(\frac{p V}{\gamma-1}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\frac{p V}{\gamma-1}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \Delta U = n C_v \Delta T = n \left( \frac{R}{\gamma - 1} \right) \Delta T \) \( p \Delta V = n R \Delta T \implies p(2V - V) = pV = n R \Delta T \) \( \Delta U = \frac{1}{\gamma - 1} (pV) = \frac{pV}{\gamma - 1} \)
