Question

The cycle in the figure followed by an engine made of an ideal gas in ca cylinder with a piston, the heat exchanged by the engine with the surroundings for adiabatic section AB of cycle is `(C_(V)=(3)/(2)R)`

A. `(3)/(2)(P_(B)-P_(A))V_(A)`
B. `(5)/(2)P_(A)(V_(A)-V_(B))`
C. `(1)/(2)(P_(A)-P_(B))(V_(A)-V_(B))`
D. Zero

Answer 1

Correct Answer - D
Here from A to B the system is undergoing adiabatic process hence heat exchange of system with surroundings do not take place , hence `Q_(AB)=0`
