A tyre pumped to a pressure of 6 atmosphere suddenly burst. Room termperature is 25^(@)C. Calculate the temperature of escaping air.

Answer»

Solution :From `P_(1)^(1-gamma) T_(1)^(gamma)= P_(2)^(1-gamma) T_(2)^(gamma)` , Here, `P_(1)=6 " atm " P_(2)=1 " atm" `
`T_(1)=273+25=298K , gamma=1.4`
`(6)^(1-1.4) (298)^(1.4) = (1)^(1-1.4) T_(2)^(1.4)`
`T_(2)=[(298)^(1.4)/(6^(0.4))]^(1/1.4)=(298)^(1.4/1.4)/(6)^(0.4/1.4)=298/(6)^(2/7)`
USING logarithms log `T_(2)=2.4742-2/7(0.7782)`
`=2.4742-0,2209=2.2533`.
ANTI log of `202533=178.7`
`:. T_(2)=178.7 K rArr t_(2)=178.7-273=-94.3^(@) C` .
