Passage / Comprehension
An ideal gas whose adiabatic exponent equals γ is expanded according to the law P = α V, where α is a constant. The initial volume of the gas is equal to V0. As a result of expansion, the volume increases 4 times.
What is the magnitude of work performed by the gas?
Options:
Answer:
C
Solution:
w = ∫ P dV = α∫V04V0 V dV = (α)/2(16V02 - V02) = (15α V02)/2. Matches (c).
