Mayer's relation
C_p − C_v = R
Where: Cₚ = Mayer's relation, C_v = C_v, R = range / radius / resistance
Solved example
Given: C_v = 7, R = 5
Find: C_p (Mayer's relation)
- Formula: Cₚ - C_v = R
- Rearranged for Cₚ: Cₚ = C_v + R
- Substitute the values: Cₚ = 5 + 7
- Result: Cₚ = 12
Answer: C_p = 12
Calculator
