The work done in taking an ideal gas through one cycle of operation as shown in the indicator diagram below
Options
- A10⁻⁵ ~J
- B10⁻³ ~J
- C10⁻² ~J
- D10 ~J
Correct answer
D. 10 ~J
Step-by-step solution
As work done in a cycle is equal to the area enclosed by the cycle. Work done, W= p V =(4-2) (6-1)=10 ~J
