A diatomic gas \(\left(\gamma=\frac{7}{5}\right)\) is compressed adiabatically to volume \(\frac{\mathrm{v}_0}{32}\), where \(V_0\) is its initial volume. The initial temperature of the gas is \(T_i\) in kelvin and the final temperature is \(\mathrm{xT}_{\mathrm{i}}\) in kelvin. The value of x is

  1. A \(5\)
  2. B \(4\)
  3. C \(3\)
  4. D \(2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(4\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(T_i V_i^{\gamma-1} = T_f V_f^{\gamma-1}\) \(T_i V_0^{\frac{7}{5}-1} = xT_i \left(\frac{V_0}{32}\right)^{\frac{7}{5}-1}\)
