$A$ sample of gas at temperature $T$ is adiabatically expanded to double its volume. The work done by the gas in the process is (given,$\gamma = 3/2$):

  • A
    $W = TR[\sqrt{2} - 2]$
  • B
    $W = \frac{T}{R}[\sqrt{2} - 2]$
  • C
    $W = \frac{R}{T}[2 - \sqrt{2}]$
  • D
    $W = RT[2 - \sqrt{2}]$
