...and thus s=k. This value 6 X of s gives dU=(l+k)e, and sdu=ke ; from which -3- = — T- • This is ratio of the specific heat under a constant pressure to the specific heat under a constant volume. Let us now subject these theoretical results to the test of calculation. According to Pouillet the... | |
