Answer Options

Correct Answer A. \( \frac{P_2}{P_1} = left\( \frac{V_1}{V_2} \right \ \)^{\gamma} )
B. \( \frac{P_2}{P_1} = left\( \frac{V_2}{V_1} \right \ \)^{\gamma} )
C. \( \frac{P_2}{P_1} = left\( \frac{V_1}{V_2} \right \ \)^{-\gamma} )
D. \( \frac{P_2}{P_1} = left\( \frac{V_2}{V_1} \right \ \)^{-\gamma} )
Correct Answer
A
Correct Option:
