MCQ
The temperature of a hypothetical gas increases to $\sqrt 2 $ times when compressed adiabatically to half the volume. Its equation can be written as
  • $P{V^{3/2}}$= constant
  • B
    $P{V^{5/2}}$= constant
  • C
    $P{V^{7/3}}$= constant
  • D
    $P{V^{4/3}}$= constant

Answer

Correct option: A.
$P{V^{3/2}}$= constant
a
(a) $T{V^{\gamma - 1}}$= constant
$\therefore  \frac{{{T_1}}}{{{T_2}}} = {\left( {\frac{{{V_2}}}{{{V_1}}}} \right)^{\gamma - 1}}$or ${\left( {\frac{1}{2}} \right)^{\gamma - 1}} = \sqrt {\frac{1}{2}} $
 $\therefore \gamma - 1 = \frac{1}{2}$or $\gamma = \frac{3}{2}$

$P{V^{3/2}}$= constant

$(A)$ The object moves on the $\mathrm{x}$-axis under a conservative force in such a way that its "speed" and "position" satisfy $v=c_1 \sqrt{c_2-x^2}$, where $\mathrm{c}_1$ and $\mathrm{c}_2$ are positive constants. $(p)$ The object executes a simple harmonic motion.
