a cylinder containing oxygen (gamma = 1.4) is closed at the top by a 50 kg frictionless piston.the area of cross section is 100 cm^2.  atm. pressure = 100Kpa.
g= 10 m/s^2...the cylinder is heated slowly for some time.find the amount of heat supplied to the gas if the piston moves out through a distance of 20 cm.

external pressure = 105 Pa
weight = 50(10) = 500 N
area of cross section = 10-2 sq.m
pressure due to weight of piston = 500/10-2 = .5 * 105
total pressure = 1.5 * 105 Pa  .............(1)
change in volume  = 10-2 * .2
Work done  = PV
                  = 1.5 * 10 * 10-2 * .2
                  = 300J
But PV = nRT
     nT = 36.08...........(2)
CP = R/(-1)        ................(u can easily derive using Cv = fR/2)
CP = 8.314(1.4)/(1.4-1)
CP = 29.1J ......................(3)
Q = nTCp
      = 36.08*29.1
      = 1050J

plz correct me if wrong at any point.....

it is isobaric

pv = nRt


v = 100 x 20 x 10^ -6

from this we can find nt.....

u = nCvt ...we know nt  and Cv ......hence we can find the answer.......anyways thanks mate

its so simple mate...

we found nt naa......

nt = 300

nt Xcp = q

300x3.5 = 1050 J
