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 \(J\))

  1. A \(-500\)
  2. B \(-400\)
  3. C \(400\)
  4. D \(200\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(-500\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Adiabatic process is from \(C\) to \(D\) \(WD =\frac{ P _{2} V _{2}- P _{1} V _{1}}{1-\gamma}\) \(=\frac{P_{D} V_{D}-P_{C} V_{C}}{1-\gamma}\) \(=\frac{200(3)-(100)(4)}{1-1.4}\) \(=-500\, J\)
