Two samples A and B of a gas initially of the same temperature and pressure are compressed from a volume V to a volume V/2 such that A is compressed isothermally and B adiabatically. The final pressure
If denotes the total number of molecules in cubic vessel such that m is mass of each milecule and I is length of each side of vessel, then mN/I3gives the:
The coefficient of linear expansion of iron is 0.000011 per°K. An iron rod is 10 metre long at 27°C. The length of the rod will be decreased by 1.1 mm when the temperature of the rod changes to
It is impossible to devise a processes which may convert heat, extracted from a single reservoir, entirely into work without leaving any change in the working system. This is the statement of
