An ideal gas is subjected to a cyclic process A B C D as depicted in the p-V diagram given below Which of the following curves represents the equivalent cyclic process?

Step-by-step solution

A B C D A is clockwise process. During A B , pressure is constant and B C , process follows p 1 V , it means T is constant. During process C D , both p and V changes and process D A follows p 1 V which means T is constant. Hence, from above data it is clear that equivalent cyclic process is
