The figure shows the plot of an ideal gas taken through a cycle . The part is a semi-circle and is half of an ellipse. Then,

Options
- Athe process during the path is isothermal
- Bheat flows out of the gas during the path
- Cwork done during the path is zero
- Dpositive work is done by the gas in the cycle .
Correct answer
B. heat flows out of the gas during the path
Step-by-step solution
(A) graph is not rectangular hyperbola. Therefore, process is not isothermal.
(B) In process , product of (therefore temperature and intemal energy) is decreasing. Further, volume is decreasing. Hence, work done is also negative. Hence, will be negative or heat will flow out of the gas.
(C) positive
(D) For clockwise cycle on diagram with on -axis, net work done is positive.
