For an adiabatic process with $\gamma = 2.5$,if the volume of a gas is reduced to $1/8$ of its initial volume,what will be the new pressure $P'$ in terms of the initial pressure $P$?

  • A
    $P' = P$
  • B
    $P' = 2P$
  • C
    $P' = P \times 2^{15/2}$
  • D
    $P' = 7P$

The initial pressure and volume of a given mass of an ideal gas (with $\frac{C_{p}}{C_{V}}=\gamma$),taken in a cylinder fitted with a piston,are $p_{0}$ and $V_{0}$ respectively. At this stage,the gas has the same temperature as that of the surrounding medium,which is $T_{0}$. It is adiabatically compressed to a volume equal to $\frac{V_{0}}{2}$. Subsequently,the gas is allowed to come to thermal equilibrium with the surroundings. What is the heat released to the surrounding?
