Question
CBSEENPH11019775

A gas of heat capacity 1200J/kg absorbs 1500 cal of heat and does 6300 J of work. Find the increase in temperature of system.

Solution

Given here,
Heat  dQ equals 1500 space cal space equals space 6300 straight J 
Work done, dW equals 6300 straight J 
According of first law of thermodynamics, 
              dQ equals dU plus dW 
rightwards double arrow          dU equals dQ minus dW equals 0 
Since increase in internal energy of gas is zero, therefore increase in temperature is also zero.
