Question: Which of the following is an example of an adiabatic process?

Options:

  1. Heating water in a kettle
  2. Compressing a gas in a piston without heat exchange
  3. Cooling a gas in a refrigerator
  4. Heating a metal rod in a flame

Correct Answer: Compressing a gas in a piston without heat exchange

Solution:

An adiabatic process is one in which no heat is exchanged with the surroundings. Compressing a gas in a piston without heat exchange is an example.

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following is an example of an adiabatic process?
  • Step 1: Understand what an adiabatic process means. It is a process where no heat is transferred in or out of a system.
  • Step 2: Think about a gas in a piston. When you compress the gas quickly, it can get hotter without any heat coming in or going out.
  • Step 3: Recognize that this compression of gas in the piston, where no heat is exchanged, is an example of an adiabatic process.
