AIPMT MAINS 2011 Physics Adiabatic Processes MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Hard-Class 11

A mass of diatomic gas (γ = 1.4) at a pressure of 2 atmospheres is compressed adiabatically so that its temperature rises from 27°C to 927°C. The pressure of the gas in the final state is

A

256 atm

B

8 atm

C

28 atm

D

68.7 atm

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

Using the adiabatic relation P₁V₁^γ = P₂V₂^γ and T₂/T₁ = (V₁/V₂)^(γ-1), we find P₂ = 256 atm.
