$A$ diesel engine has a compression ratio of $20:1$. If the initial pressure is $1 \times 10^5 \ Pa$ and the initial volume of the cylinder is $1 \times 10^{-3} \ m^3$, then how much work does the gas do during the compression (in $J$)? (Assume the process as adiabatic) $(C_V=20.8 \ J/mol \ K, \gamma=1.4, (20)^{1.4}=66.3)$

  • A
    $-880$
  • B
    $-579$
  • C
    $220$
  • D
    $485$
