Question 942: Thermodynamics & KTG

Question

One mole of an ideal monatomic gas undergoes a process described by the equation PV
3
= constant. The heat capacity of the gas during this process is

Accepted Answer

Process described by the equation,
PV
3
= constant
For a polytropic process, PV
$$\alpha $$
= constant
$$C = {C_V} + {R \over {1 - \alpha }} = {3 \over 2}R + {R \over {1 - 3}} = R$$

Answer

$${3 \over 2}$$ R

Answer

$${5 \over 2}$$ R

Answer

2R

Answer

R
