In the shown figure curve 1 represents an adiabat for n moles of an ideal mono atomic gas. Curve 2 and 3 are two isotherms for the same sample of the gas. Calculate the ratio of work done by the gas in doubling its volume from V to 2V along the isotherms 2 and 3.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`(W_(1))/(W_(2)) = 2^(2//3)`
