P-V Diagrams & Cyclic Processes
The given diagram shows four processes i.e., isochoric, isobaric, isothermal and adiabatic. The correct assignment of the processes, in the same order is given by :-

Show answer and solution
Answer: (a)
- Isochoric: vertical line ( constant), so it is d.
- Isobaric: horizontal line ( constant), so it is a.
- Isothermal and adiabatic are both falling curves; the adiabatic is steeper (slope versus ), so isothermal is b and adiabatic is c.
- So the answer is (a) d a b c.
