A monoatomic ideal gas, initially at temperature T₁ , is enclosed in a cylinder fitted with a frictionless piston. The gas is allowed to expand adiabatically to a temperature T₂ by releasing the piston suddenly. If L₁ and L₂ are the lengths of gas column before and after expansion respectively, T₁/T₂then given by
