We consider a thermodynamic system. If `DeltaU` represents the increase in its internal energy and W the work done by the system, which of the following statements is true?

A

`DeltaU=-W` is an adiabatic process

B

`DeltaU=W` in an isothermal process

C

`DeltaU=-W` in an isothermal process

D

`DeltaU=W` in an adiabatic process

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

An isothermal process is a constant temperature process. In this process
T= constant or `DeltaT=0`
`therefore" " DeltaU=nC_(v)DeltaT=0`
An adiabatic process is defined as one with no heat trasfer into or out of a system .
therefore , Q = 0 . From the first law of thermodynamics.
` W=-DeltaU " or " DeltaU=-W`
