Derive $ΔS = Nk\ln(V/V_0)$ using fundamental equations of thermodynamics [closed]
I am considering a system with an ideal gas undergoing an adiabatic expansion. The initial volume is $V_0$ and final is $V$.
From this, How do I derive $\Delta S = Nk\ln(V/V_0)$ using fundamental ...

Is this set up a reversible process and is the adiabatic equation of state applicable here?
I had this question in a recent test:
My teacher while discussing this question used the adiabatic equation of state PV^gamma=constant to solve for length L (options C and D). And used work energy ...

What are the state variables like temperature after the system has done an adiabatic irreversible process? [closed]
Consider a system containing ideal gas which is initially at a volume $V_{1}$ and then suddenly its volume is increased to a volume $V_{2}$. What is the final temperature of the system if the initial ...
