For a certain process, the pressure of a diatomic gas varies according to the relation $P = aV^2$, where $a$ is a constant. What is the molar heat capacity of the gas for this process?

The figure shows a polytropic process for an ideal gas. The work done by the gas in process $AB$ is

An ideal gas undergoes a quasi-static,reversible process in which its molar heat capacity $C$ remains constant. If during this process the relation of pressure $P$ and volume $V$ is given by $PV^n = \text{constant}$,then $n$ is given by (Here $C_p$ and $C_v$ are molar specific heat at constant pressure and constant volume,respectively):
