$A$ tyre pumped to a pressure of $2 \text{ atm}$ suddenly bursts. If the temperature of air before expansion is $T$, then the air temperature after the tyre bursts is (Assume the expansion is adiabatic and adiabatic constant $\gamma = \frac{3}{2}$).

  • A
    $\frac{T}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • B
    $\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{1/3} T$
  • C
    $\frac{T}{3\sqrt{2}}$
  • D
    $\frac{2T}{3}$
