Question
Two different adiabatic paths for the same gas intersect two isothermal curves as shown in$P-V$ diagram. The relation between the ratio $\frac{V_a}{V_d}$ and the ratio $\frac{V_b}{V_c}$ is:

Answer
For adiabatic process
$\mathrm{TV}^{\gamma-1}=\text { constant }$
$\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{a}} \cdot \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{a}}^{\gamma-1}=\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{d}} \cdot \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{d}}^{\gamma-1}$
$\left(\frac{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{a}}}{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{d}}}\right)^{\gamma-1}=\frac{\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{d}}}{\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{a}}}$
$\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{b}} \cdot \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{b}}^{\gamma-1}=\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{c}} \cdot \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{c}}^{\gamma-1}$
$\left(\frac{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{b}}}{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{c}}}\right)^{\gamma-1}=\frac{\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{c}}}{\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{b}}}$
$\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{b}} \cdot \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{b}}^{\gamma-1}=\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{c}} \cdot \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{c}}^{\gamma-1}$
$\left(\frac{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{b}}}{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{c}}}\right)^{\gamma-1}=\frac{\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{c}}}{\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{b}}}$
$\frac{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{a}}}{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{d}}}=\frac{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{b}}}{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{c}}} \quad\left(\begin{array}{r}\because \mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{d}}=\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{c}} \\ \mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{a}}=\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{b}}\end{array}\right)$
