Problem 2.43

The volume of one mole of an ideal gas with the adiabatic exponent \(\gamma\) is varied according to the law \(V=a / T,\) where \(a\) is a constant. Find the amount of heat obtained by the gas in this process if the gas temperature increased by \(\Delta T\).

Reveal Answer
Q=RΔT(2γ)/(γ1)Q=R \Delta T(2-\gamma) /(\mathcal{\gamma}-1)
