In an adiabatic process (one in which no heat transfer takes place), the pressure P and volume V of an ideal gas such as oxygen satisfy the equation where C is a constant. Suppose that at a certain instant of time, the volume of the gas is 2L, the pressure is 100 kPa, and the pressure is decreasing at the rate of 5 kPa/sec. Find the rate at which the volume is changing.

a. 14 L/sec

b. C–14 L/sec

c. C–

d.
