A thermodynamic system is taken through the cycle $a b c d a$. The work done by the gas along the path $b c$ is

Professor PC Thomas Classes · Answer

(a) : As volume is constant along the path $b c$, it is an isochoric process. From $1^{	ext {st }}$ law of thermodynamics, work done for isochoric process is, \ $W=P \Delta V$ As, $\Delta V=$ constant, so $W=0 \mathrm{~J}$
