Which one of the following options correctly represents a thermodynamic process that is used as a correction in the determination of the speed of sound in an ideal gas?
$$\left( {\rm I} \right)\left( {ii} \right)\left( Q \right)$$
$$\left( {{\rm I}V} \right)\left( {ii} \right)\left( R \right)$$
$$\left( {{\rm I}{\rm I}{\rm I}} \right)\left( {iv} \right)\left( R \right)$$
$$\left( {\rm I} \right)\left( {iv} \right)\left( Q \right)$$
Explanation
Adiabatic process is used as a correction in the determination of the speed of sound in an ideal gas. The p-V diagram of this process is shown in (Q). The work done on the gas in an adiabatic process is given by $${W_{1 \to 2}} = {{{p_2}{V_2} - {p_1}{V_1}} \over {\gamma - 1}}$$.
