An ideal monoatomic gas with pressure $P$, volume $V$ and temperature $T$ is expanded isothermally to a volume $2V$ and a final pressure $P_i$. If the same gas is expanded adiabatically to a volume $2V$, the final pressure is $P_a$. The ratio $\frac{P_a}{P_i}$ is

  • A
    $2^{-1/3}$
  • B
    $2^{1/3}$
  • C
    $2^{2/3}$
  • D
    $2^{-2/3}$

The slopes of isothermal and adiabatic curves are related as

Three samples of the same gas $A, B$ and $C$ $(\gamma = 3/2)$ have initially equal volume. Now the volume of each sample is doubled. The process is adiabatic for $A$,isobaric for $B$,and isothermal for $C$. If the final pressures are equal for all three samples,the ratio of their initial pressures is:

$A$ given mass of a gas is compressed isothermally until its pressure is doubled. It is then allowed to expand adiabatically until its original volume is restored and its pressure is then found to be $0.75$ of its initial pressure. The ratio of the specific heats of the gas is approximately:
