The volume of an ideal gas (γ = 1.5) is changed adiabatically from 4.00 litres to 3.00 litres. Find the ratio of (a) the final pressure to the initial pressure and (b) the final temperature to the initial temperature.

Question

Philoid · Accepted Answer

Here γ= 1.5, V1=4, V2=3.Let P1 and P2 be the initial and final pressure

(a)Since it is an adiabatic process, So PV^γ = const.

I.e.

(b)Also for an adiabatic process, TV^{γ -1}=constant

I.e.
