Polytropic process with heat addition

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on determining the final pressure (p2) and the coefficient of expansion (n) in a polytropic process when the initial pressure (p1), initial volume (v1), final volume (v2), and heat added (q) are known. Participants emphasize the need for a clearer problem statement and suggest posting in the Homework - Introductory Physics board for better assistance. The discussion highlights the importance of providing the exact wording of the problem and any attempts made towards a solution.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of polytropic processes in thermodynamics
  • Knowledge of the ideal gas law
  • Familiarity with heat transfer concepts
  • Basic algebra for solving equations
NEXT STEPS
  • Study the equations governing polytropic processes

In polytropic process if we know p1,v1,v2 and q(heat added in process) then what will be the value of p2 and the coff. Of expansion (n) ?

Welcome to PF Rakesh!

Unfortunately, this appears to be a thermodynamics problem, not quantum physics. It is also not very clearly explained, which is likely why no one has responded. I would suggest that you post it in the Homework - Introductory Physics board and follow the template for posting a problem. Make sure that you give us the exact wording of the problem that you are trying to solve and show us what you have done to attempt a solution.

i want to ask that sir ,in a polytropic expansion of a gas if we know the initial pressure and initial volume of gas and the heat added in the the gas during expansion and we also know the final volume of the gas , then what will be the final pressure of gas and the coff. of expansion ??
