Answer is B.∆U=q+w. (1)For adiabatic process, q=0. So, ∆U=W.Now, Cv=dU/dT. So, dU=Cv*dT and hence W=Cv*dT. (2)Now, W=3kJ=3000J.So, Change in temperature=dT= W/Cv = 150 K.Initial temperature=27°C=300 K.So, Final temperature= 300-150 (since,dT=150) = 150 K.Regards, Sanchit GargClass XII

Dear student,
Please find the solution to your problem.
 
∆U = q+w. (1)
For adiabatic process, q=0.
So, ∆U = W.
Now, Cv = dU/dT.
So, dU = Cv*dT and hence W=Cv*dT. (2)
Now, W = 3kJ = 3000J.
So, Change in temperature = dT = W/Cv = 150 K.
Initial temperature = 27°C = 300 K.
Since the gas expands so the temperature decreases and thus final temperature is 300−150 = 150
 
Thanks and regards,
