    The specific heat capacity of a metal at low temperature (T) is given as\[{{C}_{p}}(kJ{{K}^{-1}}k{{g}^{-1}})=32{{\left( \frac{T}{400} \right)}^{3}}.\] A 100 g vessel of this metal is to be cooled from 20 K to 4 K by a special refrigerator operating at room temperature\[\left( 27{}^\circ C \right).\] The amount of work required to cool in vessel is

    A) equal to 0.002 kJ

    B) greater than 0.148 kJ

    C) between 0.148 KJ and 0.028 kJ

    D) less than 0.028 KJ

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] Heat required to change the temperature of vessel by a small amount dT \[-dQ=m{{C}_{p}}dT\] Total heat required \[-Q=m\int_{20}^{4}{32{{\left( \frac{T}{400} \right)}^{3}}dT}\] \[=\frac{100\times {{10}^{-3}}\times 32}{{{(400)}^{3}}}{{\left[ \frac{{{T}^{4}}}{4} \right]}^{4}}_{20}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[Q=0.001996\,kJ\] Work done required to maintain the temperature of sink to\[{{T}_{2}}\]             \[W={{Q}_{1}}-{{Q}_{2}}=\frac{{{Q}_{1}}-{{Q}_{2}}}{{{Q}_{2}}}{{Q}_{2}}=\left( \frac{{{T}_{1}}}{{{T}_{2}}}-1 \right){{Q}_{2}}\]             \[\Rightarrow \] \[W=\left( \frac{{{T}_{1}}-{{T}_{2}}}{{{T}_{2}}} \right){{Q}_{2}}\] For \[{{T}_{2}}=20\,K\] \[{{W}_{1}}=\frac{300-20}{20}\times 0.001996=0.028kJ\] For \[{{T}_{2}}=4\,K\] \[{{W}_{2}}=\frac{300-4}{4}\times 0.001996=0.148\,kJ\] As temperature is changing from 20k to 4 k, work done required will be more than \[{{W}_{1}}\] but less than \[{{W}_{2}}.\]
