(b) For adiabatic process $T{V^{\gamma - 1}}$= constant

==> $\frac{{{T_2}}}{{{T_1}}} = {\left( {\frac{{{V_1}}}{{{V_2}}}} \right)^{\gamma - 1}}$==> ${T_2} = {\left( {\frac{{{V_1}}}{{{V_2}}}} \right)^{\gamma - 1}} \times {T_1}$

==> ${T_2} = {\left( {\frac{1}{{81}}} \right)^{1.25 - 1}} \times 273$$ = {\left( {\frac{1}{{81}}} \right)^{0.25}} \times 273$

$ = \frac{{273}}{3} = 91K = \,-182°C$
