During an adiabatic process an object does 100 J of work and its temperature decreases by 5 K. During another process it does 25

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The heat capacity for the second process is 15 J/K.

Explanation:

Given that,

Work = 100 J

Change temperature = 5 k

For adiabatic process,

The heat energy always same.

$dQ=0$

$dU=-dW$

We need to calculate the number of moles and specific heat

Using formula of heat

$dU=nC_{v}dT$

$nC_{v}=\dfrac{dU}{dT}$

Put the value into the formula

$nC_{v}=\dfrac{-100}{5}$

$nC_{v}=-20\ J/K$

We need to calculate the heat

Using formula of heat

$dQ=nC_{v}(dT_{1})+dW_{1}$

Put the value into the formula

$dQ=-20\times5+25$

$dQ=-75\ J$

We need to calculate the heat capacity for the second process

Using formula of heat

$dQ=nC_{v}(dT_{1})$

Put the value into the formula

$-75=nC_{v}\times(-5)$

$nC_{v}=\dfrac{-75}{-5}$

$nC_{v}=15\ J/K$

Hence, The heat capacity for the second process is 15 J/K.
