Work - (Measured in Joule) - Work is done when a force that is applied to an object moves that object.
Mass of Gas - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass of Gas is the mass on or by which the work is done.
Initial Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Initial Temperature is the measure of hotness or coldness of a system at its initial state.
Final Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Final Temperature is the measure of hotness or coldness of a system at its final state.
Heat Capacity Ratio - The Heat Capacity Ratio also known as the adiabatic index is the ratio of specific heats i.e. the ratio of the heat capacity at constant pressure to heat capacity at constant volume.
