One mole of an ideal gas undergoes a process in which pressure and volume are related by the equation:
        \(P=P_0\left[1-\dfrac{1}{2}\left(\dfrac{V_0}{V}\right)^2\right] \)
where \(P_0\)​ and \(V_0\)​ are constants. If the volume of the gas increases from \(V=V_0\)​ to \(V=2V_0,\) what is the resulting change in temperature?
1. \( \frac{3}{4} \frac{P_o V_o}{R} \)
