The volume of air decreased to one third of its original value as a result of shock compression. How many times did the pressure of air and its temperature increase? Compare with the variation of these quantities as a result of quasistatic adiabatic compression.

Answer»


ANSWER :`p//p_0 = 5.86 ; T//T_0` (adiabatic COMPRESSION for a SHOCK)
`p//p_0 = 4.67 ; T//T_0 = 1.56` (adiabatic compression for a QUASISTATIC process)
