Q.

An ideal gas undergoes a process in which PV−a= constant, where Vis the volume occupied by the gas initially at pressure P. At the end of the process, rms speed of gas molecules has become a1/2 times of its initial value. What will be the value of CV so that energy transferred by the heat to the gas is 'a'times of the initial energy (ΔQ=aPV)
