The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem regarding the relationship between gamma (γ) and temperature (T), we need to understand the definitions and properties of specific heats. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Gamma (γ)**: - Gamma (γ) is defined as the ratio of specific heat at constant pressure (Cp) to specific heat at constant volume (Cv): \[ \gamma = \frac{C_p}{C_v} \] 2. **Nature of Specific Heats**: - Specific heats (Cp and Cv) are properties of a substance that can depend on temperature. However, the ratio of these two specific heats (γ) is a dimensionless quantity. 3. **Dependence on Temperature**: - While Cp and Cv can vary with temperature, their ratio (γ) is often considered constant for an ideal gas over a limited temperature range. This means that γ does not change with temperature. 4. **Conclusion**: - Since γ is a dimensionless ratio that does not depend on temperature, we can express this relationship mathematically: \[ \gamma \propto T^0 \] - This indicates that γ is independent of temperature, as any quantity raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1. 5. **Final Statement**: - Therefore, the correct relation is that γ does not depend on temperature T.
