Two gases $A$ and $B$ have the same initial state $(P, V, n, T)$. Gas $A$ is compressed to $V/8$ by an isothermal process,and gas $B$ is compressed to $V/8$ by an adiabatic process. The ratio of the final pressure of gas $A$ to that of gas $B$ is (Both gases are monoatomic,$\gamma = 5/3$).

  • A
    $1/8$
  • B
    $1/4$
  • C
    $1/64$
  • D
    $1/12$

An ideal gas expands isothermally from volume $V_1$ to volume $V_2$. It is then compressed to the original volume $V_1$ adiabatically. If $p_1$ and $p_2$ represent the initial pressure and final pressure respectively, and $W$ represents the net work done by the gas during the entire process, then:
