Expansion Processes of a Perfect Gas

Assignment:

1. Attend the laboratory class and complete the lab tests according to the supervisor's requirement. Students will not allowed to submit their report if they do not come to the lab class.

2. Write one about 2000-2500 word report and submit it by the due time. In the report, you need to do the following analysis.

Test A

- Draw the capacity ratio v.s. pressure graph. Discuss how well the results obtained from the lab compared with the expected results (you should find the exact heat capacity ratio yourself from library, internet or some other sources), by putting the test results and the expected results in the same graph. Explain the reasons for any difference.
The exact heat capacity ratio varies between 1.399 and 1.401 for temperature in the range of -40° to 50°. You may use 1.4 as the exact heat capacity ratio in your report.
- Discuss why the initial expansion process can be considered adiabatic?

Test B

Discuss
- How well the result obtained compared to the expected result? Give possible reasons for any difference. The exact volumes of the large and the small vessels are 22.4 and 9.1 litres, respectively.
- Comment on how the rate of change affects the temperature of the air inside the vessels.
