प्रश्न
Air (γ = 1.4) is pumped at 2 atm pressure in a motor tyre at 20°C. If the tyre suddenly bursts, what would be the temperature of the air coming out of the tyre? Neglect any mixing with the atmospheric air.
उत्तर
Given:
For air, γ = 1.4
Initial temperature of air, T1 = 20°C = 293 K
Initial pressure, P1 = 2 atm
Final pressure, P2 = 1 atm
The bursting of the tyre is an adiabatic process. For an adiabatic process,
P11-γ × T11-γ = P 1-γ × T2γ
(2)1-1.4 × (293)1.4 = (1) 1-1.4 × T21.4
⇒ (2)-0.4 ×(293)1.4 = T21.4
⇒ 2153.78 =T21.4
⇒ T2 =( 2153.78)1/1.4
= 240.3K

[Hint: Assume the atoms to be ‘tightly packed’ in a solid or liquid phase, and use the known value of Avogadro’s number. You should, however, not take the actual numbers you obtain for various atomic sizes too literally. Because of the crudeness of the tight packing approximation, the results only indicate that atomic sizes are in the range of a few Å].
