Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) Conservation of energy

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The first law of thermodynamics states that the net work done upon the system over a complete cycle equal to heat transfer in that system or summation of heat and work over a complete cycle for a system is zero. In other words it tells that heat and work are interconvertible…
