Question:
In adiabatic compression, which of the following is true?
In adiabatic compression, which of the following is true?
Show Hint
In adiabatic processes, the temperature and pressure of the gas increase when it is compressed.
Updated On: Apr 15, 2025
- Temperature increases
- Temperature decreases
- Pressure remains constant
- Amount of heat exchanged with surround
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
In adiabatic compression, there is no heat exchange with the surroundings. The work done on the gas compresses it, increasing its internal energy and thus raising its temperature.
