Q51
Two thermally insulated vessels 11 and 22 are filled with air at temperatures (T1,T2),\left( {{T_1},{T_2}} \right), volume (V1,V2)\left( {{V_1},{V_2}} \right) and pressure (P1,P2)\left( {{P_1},{P_2}} \right) respectively. If the value joining the two vessels is opened, the temperature inside the vessel at equilibrium will be
A T1T2(P1V1+P2V2)/(P1V1T2+P2V2T1){T_1}{T_2}\left( {{P_1}{V_1} + {P_2}{V_2}} \right)/\left( {{P_1}{V_1}{T_2} + {P_2}{V_2}{T_1}} \right)
B (T1+T2)/2\left( {{T_1} + {T_2}} \right)/2
C T1+T2{{T_1} + {T_2}}
D T1T2(P1V1+P2V2)/(P1V1T1+P2V2T2){T_1}{T_2}\left( {{P_1}{V_1} + {P_2}{V_2}} \right)/\left( {{P_1}{V_1}{T_1} + {P_2}{V_2}{T_2}} \right)
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Here

Q=0Q=0

and

W=0.W=0.

Therefore from first law of thermodynamics

ΔU=Q+W=0\Delta U = Q + W = 0

\therefore Internal energy of the system with partition == Internal energy of the system without partition.

n1CvT1+n2CvT2=(n1+n2)CvT{n_1}{C_v}\,{T_1} + {n_2}\,{C_v}{T_2} = \left( {{n_1} + {n_2}} \right){C_v}\,T

\therefore

T=n1T1+n2T2n1+n2T = {{{n_1}{T_1} + {n_2}T{}_2} \over {{n_1} + {n_2}}}

But

n1=P1V1RT1{n_1} = {{{P_1}{V_1}} \over {R{T_1}}}

and

n2=P2V2RT2{n_2} = {{{P_2}{V_2}} \over {R{T_2}}}

\therefore

T=P1V1RT1×T1+P2V2RT2×T2P1V1RT1+P2V2RT2T = {{{{{P_1}{V_1}} \over {R{T_1}}} \times {T_1} + {{{P_2}{V_2}} \over {R{T_2}}} \times {T_2}} \over {{{{P_1}{V_1}} \over {R{T_1}}} + {{{P_2}{V_2}} \over {R{T_2}}}}}
=T1T2(P1V1+P2V2)P1V1T2+P2V2T1= {{{T_1}{T_2}\left( {{P_1}{V_1} + {P_2}{V_2}} \right)} \over {{P_1}{V_1}{T_2} + {P_2}{V_2}{T_1}}}

Q53
A gaseous mixture consists of 1616 gg of helium and 1616 gg of oxygen. The ratio CpCv{{Cp} \over {{C_v}}} of the mixture is
A 1.621.62
B 1.591.59
C 1.541.54
D 1.41.4
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution
n1+n2r1=n1r11+n2r21{{{n_1} + {n_2}} \over {r - 1}} = {{{n_1}} \over {{r_1} - 1}} + {{{n_2}} \over {{r_2} - 1}}
164+1632r1=16/4531+16/321.41{{{{16} \over 4} + {{16} \over {32}}} \over {r - 1}} = {{16/4} \over {{5 \over 3} - 1}} + {{16/32} \over {1.4 - 1}}

\therefore

γ=1.62\gamma = 1.62
Q54
The work of 146146 kJkJ is performed in order to compress one kilo mole of gas adiabatically and in this process the temperature of the gas increases by 7C.{7^ \circ }C. The gas is (R=8.3Jmol1K1)\left( {R = 8.3J\,\,mo{l^{ - 1}}\,{K^{ - 1}}} \right)
A diatomic
B triatomic
C a mixture of monoatomic and diatomic
D monoatomic
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution
W=nRΔT1γ146000W = {{nR\Delta T} \over {1 - \gamma }} \Rightarrow - 146000
=1000×8.3×71γ= {{1000 \times 8.3 \times 7} \over {1 - \gamma }}

or

1γ=58.1146γ1 - \gamma = - {{58.1} \over {146}} \Rightarrow \gamma
=1+58.1146=1.4= 1 + {{58.1} \over {146}} = 1.4

Hence the gas is diatomic.

Q55
Two rigid boxes containing different ideal gases are placed on a table. Box A contains one mole of nitrogen at temperature T0,{T_0}, while Box contains one mole of helium at temperature (73)T0.\left( {{7 \over 3}} \right){T_0}. The boxes are then put into thermal contact with each other, and heat flows between them until the gases reach a common final temperature (ignore the heat capacity of boxes). Then, the final temperature of the gases, Tf{T_f} in terms of T0{T_0} is
A Tf=37T0{T_f} = {3 \over 7}{T_0}
B Tf=73T0{T_f} = {7 \over 3}{T_0}
C Tf=32T0{T_f} = {3 \over 2}{T_0}
D Tf=52T0{T_f} = {5 \over 2}{T_0}
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

Heat lost by He == Heat gained by

N2{N_2}
n1Cv1ΔT1=n2Cv2ΔT2{n_1}C{v_1}\Delta {T_1} = {n_2}C{v_2}\Delta {T_2}
32R[73T0Tf]{3 \over 2}R\left[ {{7 \over 3}{T_0} - {T_f}} \right]
=52R[TfT0]Tf= {5 \over 2}R\left[ {{T_f} - {T_0}} \right] \Rightarrow {T_f}
=32T0= {3 \over 2}{T_0}
Q56
A Carnot engine, having an efficiency of η=1/10\eta = 1/10 as heat engine, is used as a refrigerator . If the work done on the system is 1010 JJ, the amount of energy absorbed from the reservoir at lower temperature is
A 100100 JJ
B 9999 JJ
C 9090 JJ
D 11 JJ
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

The efficiency

(η)\left( \eta \right)

of a Carnot engine and the coefficient of performance

(β)\left( \beta \right)

of a refrigerator are related as

β=1ηη\beta = {{1 - \eta } \over \eta }
\,\,\,\,\,\,

Here,

η=110\eta = {1 \over {10}}
\,\,\,\,\,\,

\therefore

β=1110(110)=9.\beta = {{1 - {1 \over {10}}} \over {\left( {{1 \over {10}}} \right)}} = 9.

Also, Coefficient of performance

(β)\left( \beta \right)

is given by

β=Q2W,\beta = {{{Q_2}} \over W},

where

Q2{Q_2}

is the energy absorbed from the reservoir. or,

9=Q2109 = {{{Q_2}} \over {10}}

\therefore

Q2=90J.{Q_2} = 90\,J.
Q57
The speed of sound in oxygen (O2)\left( {{O_2}} \right) at a certain temperature is 460ms1.460\,\,m{s^{ - 1}}. The speed of sound in helium (He)(He) at the same temperature will be (assume both gases to be ideal)
A 1421ms11421\,\,m{s^{ - 1}}
B 500ms1500\,\,m{s^{ - 1}}
C 650ms1650\,\,m{s^{ - 1}}
D 300ms1300\,\,m{s^{ - 1}}
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

The speed of sound in a gas is given by

v=γRTMv = \sqrt {{{\gamma RT} \over M}}

\therefore

vO2vHe=γO2MO2×MHeγHe{{{v_{{O_2}}}} \over {{v_{He}}}} = \sqrt {{{{\gamma _{{O_2}}}} \over {{M_{{O_2}}}}} \times {{{M_{He}}} \over {{\gamma _{He}}}}}
=1.432×41.67=0.3237= \sqrt {{{1.4} \over {32}} \times {4 \over {1.67}}} = 0.3237

\therefore

vHe=vO20.3237{v_{He}} = {{{v_{{O_2}}}} \over {0.3237}}
=4600.3237= {{460} \over {0.3237}}
=1421m/s= 1421\,m/s

Q59
An insulated container of gas has two chambers separated by an insulating partition. One of the chambers has volume V1{V_1} and contains ideal gas at pressure P1{P_1} and temperature T1{T_1}. The other chamber has volume V2{V_2} and contains ideal gas at pressure P2{P_2} and temperature T2{T_2}. If the partition is removed without doing any work on the gas, the final equilibrium temperature of the gas in the container will be
A T1T2(P1V1+P2V2)P1V1T2+P2V2T1{{{T_1}{T_2}\left( {{P_1}{V_1} + {P_2}{V_2}} \right)} \over {{P_1}{V_1}{T_2} + {P_2}{V_2}{T_1}}}
B P1V1T1+P2V2T2P1V1+P2V2{{{P_1}{V_1}{T_1} + {P_2}{V_2}{T_2}} \over {{P_1}{V_1} + {P_2}{V_2}}}
C P1V1T2+P2V2T1P1V1+P2V2{{{P_1}{V_1}{T_2} + {P_2}{V_2}{T_1}} \over {{P_1}{V_1} + {P_2}{V_2}}}
D T1T2(P1V1+P2V2)P1V1T1+P2V2T2{{{T_1}{T_2}\left( {{P_1}{V_1} + {P_2}{V_2}} \right)} \over {{P_1}{V_1}{T_1} + {P_2}{V_2}{T_2}}}
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Since, no work is done and system is thermally insulated from surrounding.

Therefore, total internal energy is constant, that is, U=U1+U2U=U_1+U_2 Assuming gas have same degree of freedom, we have

(n1+n2)CVT=n1CVT1+n2CVT2\left(n_1+n_2\right) C_{\mathrm{V}} T=n_1 C_{\mathrm{V}} T_1+n_2 C_{\mathrm{V}} T_2

Therefore,

T=n1RT1+n2RT2Rn1+n2R=(P1V1+P2V2)P1V1T1+P2V2T2=(P1V1+P2V2)T1T2(P1V1T2+P2V2T1)T=\frac{n_1 R T_1+n_2 R T_2}{R n_1+n_2 R}=\frac{\left(P_1 V_1+P_2 V_2\right)}{\frac{P_1 V_1}{T_1}+\frac{P_2 V_2}{T_2}}=\frac{\left(P_1 V_1+P_2 V_2\right) T_1 T_2}{\left(P_1 V_1 T_2+P_2 V_2 T_1\right)}
Q60
A diatomic ideal gas is used in a Carnot engine as the working substance. If during the adiabatic expansion part of the cycle the volume of the gas increases from VV to 3232 VV, the efficiency of the engine is
A 0.50.5
B 0.750.75
C 0.990.99
D 0.250.25
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution
T1Vγ1=T2(32V)γ1{T_1}{V^{\gamma - 1}} = {T_2}{\left( {32V} \right)^{\gamma - 1}}
T1=(32)γ1.T2\Rightarrow {T_1} = {\left( {32} \right)^{\gamma - 1}}.{T_2}

For diatomic gas,

γ=75\gamma = {7 \over 5}

\therefore

γ1=25\gamma - 1 = {2 \over 5}

\therefore

T1=(32)25.T2T1=4T2{T_1} = {\left( {32} \right)^{{2 \over 5}}}.{T_2} \Rightarrow {T_1} = 4{T_2}

Now, efficiency

=1T2T1= 1 - {{{T_2}} \over {{T_1}}}
=1T24T2= 1 - {{{T_2}} \over {4{T_2}}}
=114= 1 - {1 \over 4}
=34= {3 \over 4}
=0.75.= 0.75.
