For a certain gas the ratio of specific ...

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_P=(3R)/J`

C

`C_P=(5R)/J`

D

`C_V=(5R)/J`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`C_P-C_V=R/J implies C_P=R/J +C_V=R/J +(R)/(J (gamma-1))`
`implies C_P=R/J ((gamma)/(gamma-1))=R/J ((1.5)/(1.5-1))=(3R)/(J)`
