STANDARD Physics Specific Heat Capacities MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11
For a gas of molecular weight M, specific heat capacity at constant pressure is γ = rac{C_p}{C_v}
A
R / (γ - 1)
B
γR / (γ - 1)
C
γR / M(γ - 1)
D
γRM / (γ - 1)
Correct Answer
Option C
Detailed Explanation
According to Meyer's relation, . Therefore, the specific heat capacity at constant pressure can be expressed as rac{γR}{M(γ - 1)}.
