Heat and Ideal Gas Homework: Point 3 Pressure Calculation
I used the formula PV = nRT for Point 1 and solved for V1 = 2.46x10^(-2) I made the assumption that V2 = V1 Then I used the adiabatic formula, TV^(gamma - 1) = constant for Point 2 to Point 3. I just plugged in everything and got V3 = 4.52 x 10^(-2) Do you really want me to type out all...- element72

Heat and Ideal Gas Homework: Point 3 Pressure Calculation
Homework Statement Look at picture The Attempt at a Solution For V at point 3 I got 4.52 x 10^(-2) For V at point 2 I assumed it was the same as Point 1, but this is where it gets confusing because if I assume that, then does point 3 have the same pressure as point 1? This was...- element72
