The volume of a gas is halved during an adiabatic compression that increases the pressure by a factor of 2.5. what is the specific heat ratio? show the math steps .

The uniform slender bar rests on a smooth horizon- tal surface when a force f is applied normal to the bar at point a. point a is observed to have an initial acceleration aa of 20 m/s2, and the bar has a corre- sponding angular acceleration of 18 rad /s2. deter- mine the distance b.
