In an adiabatic process,if the pressure is increased by $\frac{2}{3}\% $ and the ratio of specific heats $\frac{C_p}{C_v} = \gamma = \frac{3}{2}$,then the volume decreases by about:

  • A
    $\frac{4}{9}\% $
  • B
    $\frac{2}{3}\% $
  • C
    $4\%$
  • D
    $\frac{9}{4}\% $

An engine takes in $5$ moles of air at $20\,^{\circ}C$ and $1\,atm$,and compresses it adiabatically to $1/10^{\text{th}}$ of the original volume. Assuming air to be a diatomic ideal gas made up of rigid molecules,the change in its internal energy during this process is $X\,kJ$. The value of $X$ to the nearest integer is
