MCQ
One mole of helium is adiabatically expanded from its initial state $\left(P_i, V_i, T_i\right)$ to its final state $\left(P_f, V_f, T_f\right)$. The decrease in the internal energy associated with this expansion is equal to
  • $C_V\left(T_i-T_f\right)$
  • B
    $C_P\left(T_i-T_f\right)$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2}\left(C_P+C_V\right)\left(T i-T_f\right)$
  • D
    $\left(C_P-C_V\right)\left(T_i-T_f\right)$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$C_V\left(T_i-T_f\right)$
(a)$\Delta U=\mu C_V \Delta T=1 \times C_V\left(T_fT_i\right)=C_V\left(T_i-T_f\right) $

A moving coil galvanometer, having a resistance $G$, produces full scale deflection when a current $I_g$ flows through it. This galvanometer can be converted into $(i)$ an ammeter of range $0$ to $I_0 (I_0 > I_g)$ by connecting a shunt resistance $R_A$ to it and $(ii)$ into a voltmeter of range $0$ to $V(V = GI_0)$ by connecting a series resistance $R_V$ to it. Then,
