The ratio of the specific heats `C_(p)/C_(v)=gamma` in terms of degrees of freedom (n) is given by

A

` (1+ ( n)/(3))`

B

` (1+ ( 2)/(n))`

C

` (1+ ( n)/(2))`

D

` (1+ ( 1)/(n))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

` gamma =1 +(2)/(f) `
Here degree of freedom ` to n `
` therefore gamma = 1 +(2)/(n)`
