Question

For calorically perfect gas, specific heats \(C_p\) and \(C_v\) are

• A. constant
• B. function of temperature
• C. function of pressure
• D. function of density

Hint:

This simplification allows easier analysis of many basic gas dynamics problems, such as those involving isentropic flows.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Define Calorically Perfect Gas.
In a calorically perfect gas, the specific heats (\(C_p\) and \(C_v\)) are constant and do not change with temperature, pressure, or density.
