    An ideal gas is heated at constant pressure and absorbs amount of heat Q. If the adiabatic exponent is \[\gamma \], then the fraction of heat absorbed m raising the internal energy and performing the work is

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

    B) \[1+\frac{1}{\gamma }\]

    C) \[1-\frac{2}{\gamma }\]                                  

    D) \[1+\frac{2}{\gamma }\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Heat absorbed by the system at constant pressure \[Q=n{{C}_{p}}\Delta T\] and Change in internal energy \[\Delta U=n{{C}_{v}}\Delta T\] \[W=Q-\Delta U\] Fraction \[\frac{U}{Q}=\frac{Q-\Delta U}{Q}\] \[=1--\frac{\Delta U}{Q}=\left( 1-\frac{1}{\gamma } \right)\]
