Work done by the system in the cycle = Area under P-V curve and V-axis
= 1 (2P0 - P0)(2V0 - V0) - 1 (3P0 - 2P0)(2V0 - V0) 2 2 = P0V0 - P0V0 = 0 2 2 Correct Option: D
Work done by the system in the cycle = Area under P-V curve and V-axis
= 1 (2P0 - P0)(2V0 - V0) - 1 (3P0 - 2P0)(2V0 - V0) 2 2 = P0V0 - P0V0 = 0 2 2

According to first law of thermodynamics Q = ∆U + W
∆U = Q – W
= 2 × 4.2 × 1000 – 500
= 8400 – 500 = 7900 JCorrect Option: C
According to first law of thermodynamics Q = ∆U + W
∆U = Q – W
= 2 × 4.2 × 1000 – 500
= 8400 – 500 = 7900 J

∆Q = ∆U + ∆W
⇒ ∆W = ∆Q – ∆U = 110 – 40 = 70 JCorrect Option: B
∆Q = ∆U + ∆W
⇒ ∆W = ∆Q – ∆U = 110 – 40 = 70 J
