For a certain gas the ratio of specific heat is given to be `gamma=1.5` for this gas

A

`C_(v) = (3R)/(J)`

B

`C_(v) = (5R)/(J)`

C

`C_(p) = (5R)/(J)`

D

`C_(p) = (5R)/(J)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Given , `C_(p) = 1.5` or `C_(p) = 15 C_(V)`
`C_(P) - C_(V) = (R)/(J) rArr 1.5 C_(V) - C_(V) = (R)/(J)`
`rArr 0.5 C_(V) = (R)/(J) rArr C_(V) = (2R)/(J)`
As, `C_(P) = 1.5`
`therefore C_(V) = 1.5 xx (2R)/(J) = (3R)/(J)`
