800 cc volume of a gas having `gamma = (5)/(3)` suddenly compressed adiabatically to 100 cc. If the initial pressure is P, then the final pressure will be :

A

`(P)/(32)`

B

`((24)/(5)) P`

C

`8P `

D

`32 P`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`PV ^(gamma)=` onstant
`implies (P_(2))/( P _(1)) = (( V_(1))/( V _(2)) ) ^( gamma)`
`implies therefore ( P _(2))/( P) = (( 800)/( 100)) ^( 5//3)`
`implies P _(2) = 32 P`
