The `P-V` diagram of a gas undergoing a cyclic process ABCDA is shown in (figure). Where `P` is in `N//m^(2)` and `V` is in `cm^(3)`. Identify the incorrect statement

A

0.4 J of work is done by the gas from A to B

B

0.2 J of work is done on the gas from C to D

C

No work is done by the gas from B to C

D

Work is done by the gas in going from B to C and on the gas from D to A.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

The incorrect statement is (d). This is because in going from B to C or D to A , dV = 0
`:. dW = p. dV = 0`
