The specific heat at constant pressure and at constant volume for an ideal gas are $C_p$ and $C_v$,and its adiabatic and isothermal elasticities are $E_{\phi}$ and $E_{\theta}$ respectively. The ratio of $E_{\phi}$ to $E_{\theta}$ is

  • A
    $C_v/C_p$
  • B
    $C_p/C_v$
  • C
    $C_p C_v$
  • D
    $1/(C_p C_v)$
