A gas expands adiabatically at constant pressure such that:
`T prop(1)/(sqrt(V))`
The value of `gamma` i.e., `(C_(P)//C_(V))` of the gas will be:

Options

A. 1.3
B. 1.5
C. 1.7
D. 2

Answer

B

Explanation

`Tprop(1)/(sqrt(V))`
`TV^(1//2)=`constant
For adiabatic process, `TV^(1//2)=TV^(gamma-1)=`constant
`thereforegamma-1=(1)/(2),gamma=(3)/(2)`.
