Cooling is produced when a gas at high pressure suddenly expands. Why?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To understand why cooling occurs when a gas at high pressure suddenly expands, we can break down the explanation into a series of logical steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Process**: - The process described is a sudden expansion of a gas at high pressure. This is typically an adiabatic process, meaning that there is no heat exchange with the surroundings during the expansion. 2. **Understand Adiabatic Process**: ...
