If there are N stages of compression, then the pressure ratio in each stage is
A. p2/p1 = (discharge pressure/suction pressure)^(1/N)
B. p2/p1 = (suction pressure/discharge pressure)^(1/N)
C. p2/p1 = (discharge pressure/suction pressure)^N
D. p2/p1 = (suction pressure/discharge pressure)^N
Answer:A
