Question

Two containers each contain equal amounts of gas in identical volumes. The containers are completely insulated from their surroundings and are fitted with pistons. The gas in container 1 at a higher temperature than the gas in container 2. The gasses are allowed to expand and move their pistons until the containers each have twice their initial volume. Which expansion does more work? Container 1 Container 2 There is equal work done in each case. Two objects with identical masses arc placed in thermal contact but are insulated from their surroundings. Object 1 has a specific heat of c1 and is initially at a temperature of 100 degree C. Object 2 has a specific heat of c2 and is initially at a temperature of 300 degree C. If c1 c2, then what is the final temperature of the system when it reaches thermal equilibrium? Greater than 200 degree C 200 degree C Less than 200 degree C

Explanation / Answer

question 1- the container does at higher temperature does more work (more the temperature more the expansion ) question 2- it should be 200 c
