To show that \( C_V = \frac{R}{\gamma - 1} \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Definitions We start with the definitions of the heat capacities: - \( C_P \): Heat capacity at constant pressure - \( C_V \): Heat capacity at constant volume - \( R \): Universal gas constant - \( \gamma \): Ratio of heat capacities defined as \( \gamma = \frac{C_P}{C_V} \) ...

Molar heat capacity of an ideal gas in the process PV^(x) = constant , is given by : C = (R)/(gamma-1) + (R)/(1-x) . An ideal diatomic gas with C_(V) = (5R)/(2) occupies a volume V_(1) at a pressure P_(1) . The gas undergoes a process in which the pressure is proportional to the volume. At the end of the process the rms speed of the gas molecules has doubled from its initial value. The molar heat capacity of the gas in the given process is :-
