Two insulting cylinders A and B fitted with pistons contain equal amounts of an ideal diatomic gas at temperature 300K. The piston 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 30K. Then the rise in temperature of the gas in B is.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
A is free to move; therefore, heat will be supplied at constant pressure.

B is held fixed, therefore, heat will be supplied at constant volume.

But
