    A gas is heated at constant pressure. The fraction of heat supplied used for external work is

    A)  \[\frac{1}{\gamma }\]                                  

    B)  \[\left( 1-\frac{1}{\gamma } \right)\]

    C)  \[\gamma -1\]                 

    D)  \[\left( 1-\frac{1}{{{\gamma }^{2}}} \right)\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                                    \[\frac{dW}{dQ}=\frac{dQ-dU}{dQ}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{dW}{dQ}=1-\frac{dU}{dQ}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{dW}{dQ}=1-\frac{n{{C}_{V}}dT}{n{{C}_{p}}dT}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{dW}{dQ}=1-\frac{{{C}_{V}}}{{{C}_{p}}}=1-\frac{1}{\gamma }\]
