Two different adiabatic paths for the same gas intersect two isothermal curves as shown in the $P-V$ diagram. The relation between the ratio $\frac{V_a}{V_d}$ and the ratio $\frac{V_b}{V_c}$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{V_a}{V_d}=\left(\frac{V_b}{V_c}\right)^{-1}$
  • B
    $\frac{V_a}{V_d} \neq \frac{V_b}{V_c}$
  • C
    $\frac{V_a}{V_d}=\frac{V_b}{V_c}$
  • D
    $\frac{V_a}{V_d}=\left(\frac{V_b}{V_c}\right)^2$

The pressure and density of a given mass of a diatomic gas $\left(\gamma = \frac{7}{5}\right)$ change adiabatically from $(P, d)$ to $(P^{\prime}, d^{\prime})$. If $\frac{d^{\prime}}{d} = 32$, then $\frac{P^{\prime}}{P}$ is $(\gamma = \text{ratio of specific heats})$.

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

An ideal gas is expanded adiabatically. How many times has the gas to be expanded to reduce the r.m.s. speed of molecules $3$ times (in $\times$)? $(\gamma = 1.5)$

In an adiabatic expansion of a gas, the initial and final temperatures are $T_1$ and $T_2$ respectively. Then, the change in internal energy of the gas is:
$[R = \text{gas constant}, \gamma = \text{adiabatic ratio}]$

For an adiabatic process with $\gamma = 2.5$,if the volume of a gas is reduced to $1/8$ of its initial volume,what will be the new pressure $P'$ in terms of the initial pressure $P$?
