Avolume of cool air rapidly descends from the top of a mountain. the air is a poor thermal conductor, but its temperature increases as its volume decreases, because of the increase in atmospheric pressure as it reaches the ground. what thermodynamic process takes place? isobaric isothermal isovolumetric adiabatic

Adiabatic

Explanation:

An adiabatic process is a thermodynamic process in which the system does not exchange heat with its surroundings. An adiabatic process may also be isentropic, meaning that the process may be reversible. The term adiabatic refers to elements that prevent heat transfer with the environment. An insulated wall is quite close to an adiabatic boundary. Hence the term of the adiabatic wall appears.

Air is a bad thermal conductor, this means that air is a system that makes it difficult to change the temperature with the systems around it, so we can conclude that the above question deals with the thermodynamic process called adiabatic.

what experimental evidence led scientists to change from the previous model to this one?

a few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back.

the colors of light emitted from heated atoms had very specific energies.

experiments with water vapor showed that elements combine in specific proportions.

cathode rays were bent in the same way whenever a magnet was brought near them.
