Physics Question on specific heat capacity
The pressure of a gas changes linearly with volume from A to B as shown in figure If no heat is supplied to or extracted from the gas then change in the internal energy of the gas will be Is
A
4.5J
B
−4.5J
C
zero
D
6J
Answer
4.5J
Explanation
Solution
As Δq=0
Δu=−W
W=∫PdV
Δu=−W=30×103×150×10−6
=4500×10−3
=4.5J
