Here
and
Therefore from first law of thermodynamics
Internal energy of the system with partition Internal energy of the system without partition.
But
and
Here
and
Therefore from first law of thermodynamics
Internal energy of the system with partition Internal energy of the system without partition.
But
and
Internal energy and entropy are state function, they do not depend upon path taken.
or
Hence the gas is diatomic.
Heat lost by He Heat gained by
The efficiency
of a Carnot engine and the coefficient of performance
of a refrigerator are related as
Here,
Also, Coefficient of performance
is given by
where
is the energy absorbed from the reservoir. or,
The speed of sound in a gas is given by
w = nR
T
H = (Cv + nR)
T
Since, no work is done and system is thermally insulated from surrounding.
Therefore, total internal energy is constant, that is, Assuming gas have same degree of freedom, we have
Therefore,
For diatomic gas,
Now, efficiency
