A sample of helium gas with an initial temperature of in an insulated cylinder with initial volume is suddenly and violently compressed to one-half its volume. The absolute temperature of the gas after the compression is observed to have doubled. (Note: In a quasistatic adiabatic compression of a monatomic gas, constant.) A suitable replacement process for this process would be
A) a slow isothermal compression from to .
B) a slow adiabatic compression from to .
C) Heating the gas to double its temperature followed by a slow adiabatic compression from to .
D) a slow adiabatic compression from to followed by heating to bring the temperature to .
E) a slow adiabatic compression from to followed by cooling to bring the temperature to .
F) None of the above.
