Question:

Ideal gas insulated, heated by current through resistance \(100\Omega\), current \(1A\) for 5 min. Find change in internal energy.

Show Hint

Insulated system $\Rightarrow$ all electrical energy goes into internal energy.

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Concept: \[ Q = I^2Rt \]

Step 1:
Calculate heat
\[ t = 5\times60 = 300s \] \[ Q = 1^2 \cdot 100 \cdot 300 = 30000J = 30kJ \]

Step 2:
Insulated system
\[ \Delta U = Q = 30kJ \] Conclusion: \(30kJ\)
