    I Does the Euler method give a better insight into adiabatic processess?

    Hi Chestermiller, how about the analytical solution and approximation solution below for an adiabatic process? Consider an adiabatic expansion with initial condition ##p(v_0)=p_0## undergo an infinitesimal small expansion from ##v_0## to ##v_0+h## The analytical solution can be obtain from...

    I Does the Euler method give a better insight into adiabatic processess?

    Hi Chestermiller thank for your feedback. That what i meant. Just like solving a differential equation regarding draining of water in a cylindrical tank through a small hole at bottom of the tank. We consider pressure of water at bottom of tank with water of height h as p=##\rho gh## and...

    I Does the Euler method give a better insight into adiabatic processess?

    I verified with others the equation below is an Euler method as well with ##a## can be any value such that it give the same ##\frac{dE}{dv}=-1.4\frac{p}{v}## but with ##a## other than one, it have no meaning in physics. For anyone that already understand Euler method can omit the part i have...

    I Solving Adiabatic Process for Two Compartments

    I tried this question and this the answer given in the book. A cylinder is close at both ends and has insulating walls. It is divided into two compartments by a perfectly insulating partition that is perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder. Each compartment contains 1.00 mol of oxygen, which...

    Is Conservation of Energy Sufficient for Deriving the Adiabatic Process?

    Adiabatic derivation Yes, from there i get the point. Thank a lot for all the work and explanation you show to me. I really appreciate it a lot.

    Is Conservation of Energy Sufficient for Deriving the Adiabatic Process?

    Adiabatic derivation Dear Mason, Thank for your fast reply. The reason i advoid using calculus is because i trying to break down thing part by part for my further understanding. I been thinking as far as things are interrelated, maybe same result/answer can also be obtained by using...

    Is Conservation of Energy Sufficient for Deriving the Adiabatic Process?

    adiabatic compression Dear Mason, Thank you for spending time for my post and answering my doubt. After checking, the work done is always defined by -∫Pdv or work done=-P(Vf-Vi) Vf=final volume and Vi=initial volume Thank for pointing out my mistake Consider a diatomic gas with...

    Is Conservation of Energy Sufficient for Deriving the Adiabatic Process?

    Adiabatic compression concept For the derivation of pv gamma using PV=nRT, i do know how to get it. However, i would like to try other concept to get it as well. Sorry for my poor explanation. At the moment, I would like to understand the below question to know whether i on the right track...

    Is Conservation of Energy Sufficient for Deriving the Adiabatic Process?

    The derivation Please refer attachment it seem using this method, it able to change instaneneous equation to continuois equation. Equation A 5/2P1V1-P2(dv)=5/2(P2)(V1+(dv)) will be transform to Equation B 10.4/V1=P1+2/5P2 However the "V1" in equation B will represent the value of "V1+dv"...

    Is Conservation of Energy Sufficient for Deriving the Adiabatic Process?

    Most of the book using PV=nRT for PV^gamma constant for adiabatic process. However, please refer attachment, proving using conservation of energy will also make sense?
