What happens to the temperature of air when it is adiabatically compressed? When it adiabatically expands?
The effect on the temperature of air when it is adiabatically compressed and when it adiabatically expands.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
In an adiabatic process, there is no heat exchange for a system either during expansion or compression.So, when work is done on the system, the internal energy of the system increases and when the work is done by the system, the internal energy decreases.
When
Conclusion:
The temperature of air will increase when it is adiabatically compressed and it will decrease when it is adiabatically compressed.
