Q12.5Multiple choice
Consider two containers A and B containing identical gases at the same pressure, volume and temperature. The gas in container A is compressed to half of its original volume isothermally while the gas in container B is compressed to half of its original value adiabatically. The ratio of final pressure of gas in B to that of gas in A is
- (a)2γ −1 γ −1 1
- (b) 2 1
- (c) 1 − γ 1
- (d) γ −1
