In an adiabatic process on a gas with `(gamma = 1.4)` the pressure is increased by `0.5%` . The volume decreases by about

A

0.0036

B

0.005

C

0.007

D

0.01

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`(dP)/(P)=-gamma ""(dV)/(V)` (For adiabatic)
`0.5=-1.4 ""(dV)/(V)`
Volume decreases by 0.36%.
