Problem

An ideal diatomic gas starts at P1=100 kPaP_1=100\,\text{kPa} and V1=0.40 m3V_1=0.40\,\text{m}^3. It is compressed to V2=0.10 m3V_2=0.10\,\text{m}^3 in a process that obeys the relation PV1.4=constantPV^{1.4}=\text{constant}. Identify the type of process and determine the final pressure P2P_2.
