    The relation between internal energy \[U\], pressure \[P\] and volume \[V\] of a gas in an adiabatic process is \[U=a+bPV\] where a and b are constants. What is the effective value of adiabatic constant\[\gamma \]?

    A) \[\frac{a}{b}\]             

    B) \[\frac{b+1}{b}\]

    C) \[\frac{a+1}{a}\]         

    D) \[\frac{b}{a}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] For an adiabatic process, \[0=dU+PdV\] Or \[d(a+bPV)+PdV=0\] Or \[(b+1)\frac{dV}{V}+b\frac{dP}{P=0}\] Or \[(b+1)logV+blogP=constant\] Or \[{{V}^{b+1}}{{P}^{b}}=cons\tan t\] Or \[P{{V}^{\frac{b+1}{b}}}=cons\tan t\] \[\therefore \gamma =\frac{b+1}{b}\]
