Thermodynamics Question 15

Question 15 - 31 January - Shift 1

The correct relation between $\gamma=\frac{C_p}{c_v}$ and temperature $T$ is :

(1) $\gamma \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{T}}$

(2) $\gamma \propto T^{o}$

(3) $\gamma \propto \frac{1}{T}$

(4) $\gamma \propto T$

Show Answer

Answer: (2)

Solution:

Formula: Heat capacity ratio

$\gamma$ is independent of temperature
