Adiabatic Reversible Expansion
For an adiabatic reversible expansion of an ideal gas from V
1
to V
2
, where V
2
= 2 V
1
, write an expression for P
2
in terms of P
1
and the aforementioned volumes.
Use p1 for p
1
, and V2 and V1 for their respective values. Use `gamma' for the Greek letter
. You can use two asterisks, `**', or a caret, `^', to indicate powers, i.e., v^2 and v**2 both mean v squared.
Answer is:
Given the above information, must the volumes be used explicitly?
Yes
No
Query, is the above formula (and Yes/No answer) correct?
