    For a gas the ratio of specific heats at constant pressure and volume is\[\text{.}\] Then the value of degree of freedom is:

    A) \[\frac{\gamma +1}{\gamma -1}\]          

    B)                        \[\frac{\gamma -1}{\gamma +1}\]                          

    C) \[\frac{1}{2}(\gamma -1)\]         

    D)        \[\frac{2}{\gamma -1}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    The ratio of specific heats at constant pressure and constant volume \[\gamma \] is related with degree of freedom as \[\gamma =1+\frac{2}{n}\]          or            \[\gamma -1=\frac{2}{n}\] Hence                   \[n=\frac{2}{\gamma -1}\]
