I am using that formula for (a) in my attempted solution, but te result is not correct. The values I use are:
V_f = unknown
V_i = 4*10^{-3}
P_i = 3 * P_f
P_f = 1.013 * 10^{5}
\lambda = 1.40
Am i using wrong values ?
Attempt 2 :
V_f = V_i * \log_{1.4}(p_i / p_f)
\Rightarrow V_f = 4*10^{-3}...
Homework Statement
4 liters of an ideal diatomic gas are compressed in a cilinder. In a closed process, the following steps are taken :
1) Initial state :
p_1 = 1 atm = 1.013*10^5 N/m^2
and :
T_1 = 300 K
2) Isochoric proces resulting in :
p_2 = 3.p_1
3) Adiabatic expansion resulting in...
