The \(P-V\) diagram of a diatomic ideal gas system going under cyclic process as shown in figure. The work done during an adiabatic process \(CD\) is (use \(\gamma=1.4\)) (in \(J\))

- A \(-500\)
- B \(-400\)
- C \(400\)
- D \(200\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(-500\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Adiabatic process is from \(C\) to \(D\) \(WD =\frac{ P _{2} V _{2}- P _{1} V _{1}}{1-\gamma}\) \(=\frac{P_{D} V_{D}-P_{C} V_{C}}{1-\gamma}\) \(=\frac{200(3)-(100)(4)}{1-1.4}\) \(=-500\, J\)
