$Assertion:$ In adiabatic compression,the internal energy and temperature of the system decrease.
$Reason:$ Adiabatic compression is a slow process.

One mole of nitrogen gas being initially at a temperature of $T_0 = 300 \,K$ is adiabatically compressed to increase its pressure $10$ times. The final gas temperature after compression is (Assume, nitrogen gas molecules as rigid diatomic and $100^{1/7} = 1.9$) (in $\,K$)

The pressure and density of a diatomic gas $(\gamma = 7/5)$ change adiabatically from $(P, d)$ to $(P', d')$. If $\frac{d'}{d} = 32$,then $\frac{P'}{P}$ is equal to:

Consider a thermodynamic process where internal energy $U = A P^2 V$ $(A = \text{constant})$. If the process is performed adiabatically, then:

$A$ gas consisting of rigid diatomic molecules was initially under standard conditions $(T_1 = 273.15 \, K)$. Then,the gas was compressed adiabatically to one-fifth of its initial volume. What will be the mean kinetic energy of a rotating molecule in the final state?
