Helium has the special property that its internal energy is directly proportional to its absolute temperature. Consider a flask of helium with a temperature of
The temperature of helium flask when it is heated up twice the internal energy.
Answer to Problem 49A
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Initial temperature of the helium flask
Formula used:
Calculation:
Conversion of temperature in kelvin,
The flask is heated until it has twice the internal energy and internal energy is directly proportional to the temperature.
So, the temperature will be twice,
In degree Celsius,
Conclusion:
Hence, the temperature is equal to the
