The initial pressure and volume of an ideal gas are P 0 and V 0 . The final pressure of the gas when the gas is suddenly compressed to volume 
will be: (Given 
= ratio of specific heats at constant pressure and at constant volume.)
A
B
4P 0
C
P 0
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
As the gas is suddenly compressed the process is adiabatic.
So, 
= constant
