MCQ
When heat $Q$ is supplied to a diatomic gas of rigid molecules at constant volume its temperature increases by $\Delta T.$ The heat required to produce the same change in temperature, at constant pressure is
  • A
    $\frac {3}{2}\,Q$
  • B
    $\frac {5}{3}\,Q$
  • $\frac {7}{5}\,Q$
  • D
    $\frac {2}{3}\,Q$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\frac {7}{5}\,Q$
c
$Q=C v \Delta T$

$Q^{\prime}=C_{P} \Delta T$

$Q^{\prime}=\frac{C_{P}}{C_{V}} Q=\left(1+\frac{2}{5}\right) Q=\frac{7}{5} Q$

Two particles of mass $m$ each are tied at the ends of a light string of length $2a$ . The whole system is kept on a frictionless horizontal surface with the string held tight so that each mass is at a distance $'a'$ from the centre $P$ (as shown in the figure). Now, the mid-point of the string is pulled vertically upwards with a small but constant force $F$ . As a result, the particles move towards each other on the surface. The magnitude of acceleration, when the separation between them becomes $2x$ , is
