Q. For a diatomic gas change in internal energy for unit change in temperature for constant volume is $U_{1}$ and $U_{2}$ respectively. $U_{1}: U_{2}$ is

Kinetic Theory

Solution:

The temperature rises by the same amount in the two cases and the internal energy of an ideal gas depends only on it's temperature Hence $\frac{U_{1}}{U_{2}}=\frac{1}{1}$
