Thermodynamic Processes

Out of the following relations which one is true in the case of an adiabatic process, where γ=Cp/Cv\gamma = C_p/C_v?

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. Adiabatic: PVγ=PV^{\gamma} = constant and V=nRTPV = \frac{nRT}{P}.
  2. P(TP)γ=P\left(\frac{T}{P}\right)^{\gamma} = constant ⇒P1−γTγ=\Rightarrow P^{1-\gamma}T^{\gamma} = constant
  3. So the answer is (a).
