Adiabatic expansion A gas is said to expand adiabatically if there is no loss or gain of heat. The formula for the adiabatic expansion of air is pv1.4 = c, where p is the pressure, v is the volume, and c is a constant. If, at a certain instant, the pressure is 40 dyne/cm2 and the volume is 60 cm3, find the value of c (a dyne is the unit of force in the cgs system).
