STANDARD Physics First Law of Thermodynamics MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11

A sample of ideal gas (γ = 1.4) is heated at constant pressure. If 100 J of heat is supplied to the gas the work done by the gas is

A

28.57 J

B

56.54 J

C

38.92 J

D

65.38 J

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The work done by the gas is calculated using the formula dW = dQ - dU = n(Cₚ - Cᵥ)dT. Given γ = Cₚ/Cᵥ = 1.4, we find dW = 100 × (2/7) = 28.57 J.
