In a p-V diagram for an ideal gas (Where , p is along y-axis and V is along X- axis) , the value of the ratio "slope pof adiabatic curve/ Slope of the isothermal curve"at any point will be (Where symbols have their usual meanings ).

A

1

B

2

C

`C_(p)//C_(v)`

D

`C_(v)//C_(p)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
As, it is known ,
`("Slope of isothermal curve")/("Slope of abiabatic curve")=gamma=(C_(p))/(C_(v))`
