To solve the problem, we need to calculate the specific heats \( C_v \) for both diatomic gases A and B and then find the ratio of these specific heats. ### Step 1: Determine the degrees of freedom for gas A Gas A is a diatomic ideal gas with rigid molecules. For a diatomic gas, the degrees of freedom \( F \) are given by: \[ F = 3 + 2 = 5 \] Here, 3 degrees of freedom correspond to translational motion (x, y, z) and 2 degrees of freedom correspond to rotational motion (rotation about two axes). ...
