Two glass bulbs A and B at same temperature are connected by a very sm...
Ans.
We know that, at constant temperature, PV = constant
So, P1V1 = P2V2
Or, P1/P2 = V2/ V1
Since, P2=(P1 - 20% P1) = 4/5P1 ,
Let, volume of bulb B is = V, i,e, V1= V Cm3 ,
Now, after opening the cork , the volume of bulb A is also added and new volume becomes, V2= (V + 100) Cm3
Hence, new volume of bulb B, V2 = (P1/P2) x V1 = [ P1/(4/5P1)]x V1
Or,putting the values we get,
(V + 100) = 5P1/4P1 x V = 5V/4
So, 5V = 4(V+100) = 4V + 400
Hence, original volume of bulb B , V = 400 cm3
