Thermodynamics Ques 9
9. An ideal gas is compressed to half its initial volume by means of several processes. Which of the process results in the maximum work done on the gas?
[2015 RS]
(a) Isobaric
(b) Isochoric
(c) Isothermal
(d) Adiabatic
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: 9.(d)
Solution:
- (d)
$\Rightarrow$
Since area under the curve is maximum for adiabatic process so, work done $(W=PdV)$ on the gas will be maximum for adiabatic process.
