Thermodynamic Processes

A thermodynamic system is compressed adiabatically, then its temperature

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. Adiabatic: Q=0Q = 0, so ΔU=−W\Delta U = -W.
  2. Compression: work is done on the gas, W<0⇒ΔU>0W < 0 \Rightarrow \Delta U > 0.
  3. UU rises, so TT rises.
  4. So the answer is (c) increases.
