Adiabatic bulk modulus of a diatomic gas at atmospheric pressure


Asked by admin @ in Physics viewed by 328 People


The adiabatic bulk modulus of a diatomic gas at atmosphere pressure is:

Answered by admin @



Explanation:

We have the bulk modulus formula as: For an adiabatic process, the bulk modulus is given by κ = −V dp / dV = γ p adiabatic bulk modulus = γP at NTP, P = 1.013 × 105 N/m2 & γ = 1.4 hence bulk modulus = 1.013 × 105 × 1.4 ≃ 1.4 × 105
