Question

The adiabatic elasticity of a diatomic gas at NTP is:

• A. zero
• B. $1\times {10}^{5}N/m^2$
• C. $1.4\times {10}^{5}N/m^2$
• D. $2.75\times {10}^{5}N/m^2$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$1.4\times {10}^{5}N/m^2$

Adiabatic elasticity is about the gas which is compressed in such a way that heat is neither allowed to enter the system nor it allowed to leave the system. Actually, the elasticity which corresponding to the adiabatic condition is the adiabatic elastic.

The adiabatic elasticity of diatomic gas at NTP is ES=$\gamma P=1.4\times {10}^{5}N/M^2$
