Helium at  27oC has a volume of 8 litres. It is suddenly compressed to a volume of 1 litre. The temperature of the gas will be [γ=5/3]

a
108oC
b
9327oC
c
1200oC
d
927oC

detailed solution

Correct option is D

TVγ−1= constant ⇒T2=T1V1V2γ−1=927∘C

A gas is enclosed in a cylinder with a movable frictionless piston. Its initial thermodynamic state at pressure P1=105Pa and volume Vi=103m3  changes to final state at Pf=132×105pa&Vf=8×103m3in an adiabatic quasi-static process, such that P3V5= constant. Consider another thermodynamic process that brings the system form the same initial state to the same final state in two steps: an isobaric expansion at Pi followed by an isochoric (is volumetric) process at volumeVf. The amount of heat supplied to the system in the two-step process is approximately
