STANDARD Physics Adiabatic Processes MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11

A one mole of an ideal gas expands adiabatically at constant pressure such that its temperature T ∝ 1/√V. The value of the adiabatic constant of gas is

A

1.3

B

1.5

C

1.67

D

2.0

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

In an adiabatic expansion, PV^γ = constant. Given T ∝ 1/√V, we find γ by comparing with T ∝ V^(1-γ). Solving gives γ = 1.5.
