Quiz 2 (반도체학과 신입생 겨울특강) – Due (2/27/2025 Thur.

23:59 PM)

Physical constants and useful numbers you can use are


Gravitational acceleration: g = 9.8 m/s2, Permittivity of free space: ε0 = 8.85X10-12C2/N•m2,
Charge of electron: e = 1.6X10-19C, Mass of electron: me = 9.1X10-31kg.
√2 ≈ 1.414 , √3 ≈ 1.713
You can also use a calculator!

Answer following five questions with your derivation.

1. A spray can containing a propellant gas at twice atmospheric pressure (202 kPa) and having a volume
of 125.00 cm3 is at 22°C. It is then tossed into an open fire. (Warning: Do not do this experiment; it is
very dangerous.) When the temperature of the gas in the can reaches 195°C, what is the pressure
inside the can? Assume any change in the volume of the can is negligible? (20p)

2. An ideal gas is taken through two processes in which Pf = 1.00×105 Pa, Vf = 2.00 m3, Pi = 0.200×105
Pa, and Vi =10.0 m3.
For process 1 shown in the figure, the temperature remains constant.
For process 2 shown in the figure, the pressure remains constant and then the volume remains
constant. What is the ratio of the work W1 done on the gas in the first process to the work W2 done in
the second process? (20p)
Process 1 : Process 2 :
3. Air at 20.0°C in the cylinder of a diesel engine is compressed from an initial pressure of 1.00 atm and
volume of 800.0 cm3 to a volume of 60.0 cm3. Assume air behaves as an ideal gas with γ = 1.40 and
the compression is adiabatic. Find the final pressure and temperature of the air. (20p)

4. An engine transfers 2.00×103 J of energy from a hot reservoir during a cycle and transfers 1.50×103 J
as exhaust to a cold reservoir. (20p)
(a) Find the efficiency of the engine.
(b) How much work does this engine do in one cycle?

5. Let’s verify that the macroscopic and microscopic approaches to the calculation of entropy lead to the
same conclusion for the adiabatic free expansion of an ideal gas. Suppose an ideal gas expands to four
times its initial volume. As we have seen for this process, the initial and final temperatures are the
same. (20p)
(a) Using a macroscopic approach, calculate the entropy change for the gas.
(b) Using statistical considerations, calculate the change in entropy for the gas and show that it agrees
with the answer you obtained in part (a).
