Reversible adiabatic process may be expressed as $(T_1/T_2)$ equal to
- A. $(V_2/V_1)^{\gamma+1}$
- B. $(V_2/V_1)^{\gamma-1}$
- C. $(P_1/P_2)^{(\gamma-1)/\gamma}$
- D. $(P_1/P_2)^{\gamma-1}$
Answer: C. $(P_1/P_2)^{(\gamma-1)/\gamma}$
Explanation: For a reversible adiabatic (isentropic) process, $T_1/T_2 = (P_1/P_2)^{(\gamma-1)/\gamma} = (V_2/V_1)^{\gamma-1}$.
