For a certain gas the ratio of specific ...

For a certain gas the ratio of specific heats is given to be `gamma=1.5` For this gas ………….. .

A

`C_(V)=3R//J`

B

`C_(P)=3R//J`

C

`C_(V)=5R//J`

D

`C_(P)=5R//J`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b
`(C_(P))/(C_(V))=(3)/(2) rArr C_(V)=(2)/(3)C_(P)`
`"Now, "C_(P)-C_(V)=RrArr C_(P)-(2)/(3)C_(P)=R rArr C_(P)=3R`
