During an adiabatic process, the pressure of a gas found to be proportional to the cube of its temperature. The ratio of \(\frac{C_P}{C_V}\) for the gas is : |
\(\frac{3}{2}\) \(\frac{4}{3}\) 2 \(\frac{5}{3}\) |
\(\frac{3}{2}\) |
P ∝ $T^3$ PV=nRT and P∝ (PV)3 P2V3 = constant ⇒ PV3/2 = constant thus, \(\gamma = \frac{3}{2}= \frac{C_P}{C_V}\)
