What is a cyclic process ?

Explanation

This is a thermodynamic process in which the thermodynamic system returns to its initial state after undergoing a series of changes. Since the system comes back to the initial state, the change in the internal energy is zero. In cyclic process, heat can flow in to system and heat flow out of the system. From the first law of thermodynamics, the net heat transferred to the system is equal to work done by the gas.
`Q_("net") = Q_("in") - Q_("out") = W" (for a cyclic process)"`
