Thermodynamics Question 184
Question: Which of the following is correct in terms of increasing work done for the same initial and final state
[RPMT 1996]
Options:
A) Adiabatic < Isothermal < Isobaric
B) Isobaric < Adiabatic < Isothermal
C) Adiabatic < Isobaric < Isothermal
D) None of these
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
In thermodynamic process, work done is equal to the area covered by the PV curve with volume axis. Hence, according to graph shown $ W _{adiabatic}<W _{isothermal}<W _{isobaric} $
