$A$ monoatomic gas $(\gamma = 5/3)$ is suddenly compressed to $1/8$ of its original volume adiabatically. The pressure of the gas will change to:

  • A
    $24/5$ times its initial pressure
  • B
    $8$ times its initial pressure
  • C
    $40/3$ times its initial pressure
  • D
    $32$ times its initial pressure

$Assertion :$ Adiabatic expansion is always accompanied by fall in temperature.
$Reason :$ In adiabatic process, volume is inversely proportional to temperature.

The pressure and density of a diatomic gas $\left(\gamma=\frac{7}{5}\right)$ change adiabatically from $(P, \rho)$ to $(P^{\prime}, \rho^{\prime})$. If $\frac{\rho^{\prime}}{\rho}=32$,then $\frac{P^{\prime}}{P}$ is:

$A$ gas for which $\gamma = 1.5$ is suddenly compressed to $\frac{1}{4}$ of its initial volume. What is the ratio of the final pressure to the initial pressure?

During an adiabatic process, the pressure of a gas is proportional to the cube of its temperature. The value of $C_p / C_V$ for that gas is

Under an adiabatic process,the volume of an ideal gas gets doubled. Consequently,the mean collision time between the gas molecules changes from $\tau_{1}$ to $\tau_{2}$. If $\frac{C_{p}}{C_{v}}=\gamma$ for this gas,then a good estimate for $\frac{\tau_{2}}{\tau_{1}}$ is given by:
