Change in internal energy

Delta U= nfrac{f}{2}RDelta T

where

f is the degree of freedom

And also using P\mathrm{v} =nRT

we get  T = \frac{P\mathrm{v} }{nR}

\Delta U =n C_{v}\Delta T = n \frac{R}{\gamma-1}.\left ( T_{f}-T_{i} \right )

or   \Delta U = \frac{1}{\gamma-1}.\left ( nRT_{f} -nRT_{i} \right )

= \frac{P_{f}\mathrm{v} _{f}-P_{i}\mathrm{v} _{i}}{\gamma-1}

= \frac{2\times 10^{3}\times 6-5\times 10^{3}\times 4}{\frac{7}{5}-1}

= \frac{-8\times 10^{3}}{\left ( \frac{2}{5} \right )}J=-20 KJ
