There are two identical containers \(C_1\) and \(C_2\) containing to identical gases. Gas in \(C_1\) is reduced to half of its original volume adiabatically, while the gas in container \(C_2\) is also reduced to half of its initial volume isothermally. Find the ratio of final pressure in these containers. ( \(\gamma\) be the adiabatic constant).
- A \(2: 1\)
- B \(1: 2\)
- C \(2^y: 1\)
- D \(2^{\gamma-1}: 1\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(2^{\gamma-1}: 1\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Let the initial pressure and volume of the gas in both containers be \(P_0\) and \(V_0\) respectively. For container \(C_1\), the process is adiabatic. The relation between pressure and volume is \(P V^{\gamma} = \text{constant}\). Given the final volume…
