An ideal gas initially at 0 temperature, is compressed suddenly to one fourth of its volume. If the ratio of specific heat at constant pressure to that at constant volume is 3/2, the change in temperature due to the thermodynamic process is K.
Answer
273
Solution
Sudden compression: no time for heat flow adiabatic, TV -1= constant.

Tf=Ti ( ViVf ) -1=273 41/2=546 K
T=546-273=273 K
Answer: 273
