(a) $T{V^{\gamma - 1}} = $constant

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

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

$ \Rightarrow {T_2} = 300{\left( {\frac{1}{2}} \right)^{0.4}} = 227.36\;K$

    Consider the efficiency of Carnot's engine is given by $\eta=\frac{\alpha \beta}{\sin \theta} \log _{e} \frac{\beta x}{k T}$, where $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are constants. If $T$ is temperature, $k$ is Boltzman constant, $\theta$ is angular displacement and $x$ has the dimensions of length. Then, choose the incorrect option.
