Two cylinders $A$ and $B$ fitted with pistons contain equal amounts of an ideal diatomic gas at $300 K$ . The piston of $A$ is free to move while that of $B$  is held fixed. The same amount of heat is given to the gas in each cylinder. If the rise in temperature of the gas in $A$ is $30 K$ , then the rise in temperature of the gas in $B$ is ..... $K$

(d) In both cylinders $ A$ and $B$ the gases are diatomic ($\gamma  = 1.4$). Piston $A$ is free to move i.e. it is isobaric process. 

Piston $B$ is fixed i.e. it is isochoric process. 

If same amount of heat $\Delta Q$ is given to both then 

${(\Delta Q)_{{\rm{isobaric}}}} = {(\Delta Q)_{{\rm{isochoric}}}}$==> $\mu \,{C_p}{(\Delta T)_A} = \mu \,{C_v}{(\Delta T)_B}$ 

==>${(\Delta T)_B} = \frac{{{C_p}}}{{{C_v}}}{(\Delta T)_A} = \gamma {(\Delta T)_A} = 1.4 \times 30 = 42\,K.$
