Answer

The gas in an elastic sphere expanded from 0.5m to 0.62m diameter when heated, with the pressure proportional to the diameter. The work done by the gas is calculated as the integral of pressure with respect to volume over the change in volume. The work is found to be 7.70 kJ.

1. An elastic sphere of 0.5m diameter contains a gas at 115 kPa.

Heating of the sphere


causes it to increase to 0.62 m and during this process the pressure is proportional to
the sphere diameter. Determine the work done by the gas.
