On a P-V diagram of an ideal gas, suppose a reversible adiabatic line intersects a reversible isothermal line at point A. Then at a point A, the slope of the reversible adiabatic line $${\left( {\frac{{\partial {\text{P}}}}{{\partial {\text{V}}}}} \right)_{\text{S}}}$$  and the slope of the reversible isothermal line $${\left( {\frac{{\partial {\text{P}}}}{{\partial {\text{V}}}}} \right)_{\text{T}}}$$  are related as (where, $${\text{y}} = \frac{{{{\text{C}}_{\text{p}}}}}{{{{\text{C}}_{\text{v}}}}}$$  )
