Question

A sample of ideal gas undergoes isothermal expansion in a reversible manner from volume V1 to volume V2.
The initial pressure is P1 and the final pressure is P2. The same sample is then allowed to undergo reversible expansion under adiabatic conditions from volume V1 to V2. The initial pressure being same but final pressure is P2.

Solution

The correct option is C P1VΥ1=P2VΥ2
Since it undergoes a reversible adiabatic expansion, we have P1Vγ1=P2Vγ2.
Hence option C is the right answer.
