P-V Diagrams & Cyclic Processes

The P-V graph of an ideal gas, cycle is shown. The adiabatic process is described by the region

Figure

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. Adiabatic curves are steeper than isotherms (slope −γP/V-\gamma P/V vs −P/V-P/V).
  2. AB and DC are the gently sloping curves (isothermal); AD and BC are the steep ones.
  3. So the answer is (c) AD and BC.
