Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the specific heat of a gas during an adiabatic process, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Concept of Specific Heat**: The specific heat (s) of a substance is defined as the amount of heat (Q) required to raise the temperature (ΔT) of a unit mass (m) of the substance by one degree Celsius (or one Kelvin). The formula for specific heat is: \[ s = \frac{Q}{m \Delta T} ...
