2. \(V_1> V_2\)
3. \(V_1< V_2\)
4. \(V_1\ge V_2\)

A monoatomic ideal gas, initially at temperature \(T_1\), is enclosed in a cylinder fitted with a frictionless piston. The gas is allowed to expand adiabatically to a temperature \(T_2\) by releasing the piston suddenly. If \(L_1\) and \(L_2\) are the lengths of the gas column before and after expansion, respectively, then \(\frac{T_1}{T_2}\) is given by:
1. \(\left(\frac{L_1}{L_2}\right)^{\frac{2}{3}}\)
2. \(\frac{L_1}{L_2}\)
3. \(\frac{L_2}{L_1}\)
4. \(\left(\frac{L_2}{L_1}\right)^{\frac{2}{3}}\)

The pressure and volume of a gas are changed as shown in the P-V diagram. The temperature of the gas will:

    

1.  increase as it goes from A to B.
2. increase as it goes from B to C.
3. remain constant during these changes.
4. decrease as it goes from D to A.
