The change in internal energy equals
Options
- Aisothermal work
- Bisochoric work
- Cisobaric work
- Dadiabatic work
Correct answer
D. adiabatic work
Step-by-step solution
According to thermodynamic first law, change in internal energy of a system equal to the net heat transfer into the system minus net work done by the system. So, Q = + ve adds energy to the system and W = + ve takes energy from the system U=Q-W Here, U= internal energy If, U=-W , then Q=0 i.e. no heat is exchanged. The process is adiabatic. Hence, change in internal energy is equal to adiabatic work.
