Q.

A thermally insulated chamber of volume 2V0 is divided by a frictionless piston of area S into two equal parts A and B. Part A has an ideal gas at pressure P0 and temperature T0 and part B is vacuum. A massless spring of force constant K is connected with the piston and the wall of the container as shown. Initially the spring is unstretched. The gas inside chamber A is allowed to expand. Let in equilibrium the spring be compressed by x0. Then

Detailed Solution

Equilibrium of piston gives  PS=Kx0

          P=Kx0S

Question Image

Since the chamber is thermally insulated, LΔQ=0

 Elastic PE of spring = Work done by gas 

      or, Work done by gas =12Kx02

This work is done at the expense of internal energy of the gas.

Therefore, internal energy of the gas is decreased by (1/2)Kx02.
