    A monoatomic gas is suddenly compressed to \[{{(1/8)}^{th}}\] of its initial volume adiabatically. The ratio of its final pressure to the initial pressure is (Given the ratio of the specific heats of the given gas to be\[5/3)\]

    A) \[32\]                                   

    B) \[40/3\]

    C) \[24/5\]                               

    D) \[8\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    In an adiabatic process,                 \[p{{V}^{\gamma }}=\]constant \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{{{p}_{1}}}{{{p}_{2}}}={{\left( \frac{{{V}_{2}}}{{{V}_{1}}} \right)}^{\gamma }}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{{{p}_{1}}}{{{p}_{2}}}={{\left( \frac{1}{8} \right)}^{5/3}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{{{p}_{1}}}{{{p}_{2}}}={{\left( \frac{1}{{{2}^{3}}} \right)}^{5/3}}\]                       \[=\frac{1}{32}\]
