$A$ $500 \Omega$ resistor connected to an external battery is placed inside a thermally insulated cylinder fitted with a frictionless piston. The cylinder contains an ideal gas. $A$ current $i$ of $200 \text{ mA}$ flows through the resistor as shown in the figure. The mass of the piston is $10 \text{ kg}$. Assuming $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$, the speed at which the piston will move upward, due to heat dissipated by the resistor, so that the temperature of the gas remains unchanged is (in $\text{ cm/s}$)

  • A
    $10$
  • B
    $15$
  • C
    $20$
  • D
    $30$

In an isothermal process,the volume of an ideal gas is halved. One can say that:

Work done per mole in an isothermal change is

Two identical containers $A$ and $B$ with frictionless pistons contain the same ideal gas at the same temperature and same volume $V$. The mass of the gas in $A$ is $m_{A}$ and that in $B$ is $m_{B}$. The gas in each cylinder is now allowed to expand isothermally to the same final volume $2V$. The changes in the pressures of the gases in $A$ and $B$ are found to be $2\Delta P$ and $3\Delta P$ respectively. Then the relation between $m_{A}$ and $m_{B}$ is

Obtain an expression for work done by an ideal gas in an isothermal expansion.

$A$ cylinder fitted with a piston contains $0.2 \, moles$ of air at a temperature of $27^{\circ}C$. The piston is pushed so slowly that the air within the cylinder remains in thermal equilibrium with the surroundings. Find the approximate work done by the system if the final volume is twice the initial volume (in $J$).
