$\Delta \mathrm{U}=-\mathrm{W}=\frac{\mathrm{nR}\left(\mathrm{T}_{1}-\mathrm{T}_{2}\right)}{1-\mathrm{r}}=\frac{1 \times 8.3(-8)}{1-1.4}=166 \mathrm{J}$

    One mole of an ideal gas expands adiabatically from an initial state $\left(T_A, V_0\right)$ to final state $\left(T_f, 5 V_0\right)$. Another mole of the same gas expands isothermally from a different initial state ( $T_{\mathrm{B}}, \mathrm{V}_0$ ) to the same final state $\left(T_{\mathrm{f}}, 5 V_0\right)$. The ratio of the specific heats at constant pressure and constant volume of this ideal gas is $\gamma$. What is the ratio $T_{\mathrm{A}} / T_{\mathrm{B}}$ ?
