If DA and BC are adiabatic curves and AB and CD are isothermal curves then :–

Show that the adiabatic curve is steeper than the isothermal curve.

Statement-1: Temperature of a system can be increased without supplying heat. Statement-2: If the initial volume of system is equal to final volume in a process then work done is necessarily zero. Statement-3: If an adiabatic curve for a gas intersect with an isothermal curve for the same gas then at the point of intersection, the ratio of slope of the adiabatic and the isothermal curve is gamma .

Adiabatic curves are much steeper than isothermal-Prove it.

A gas may expand either adiabatically or isothermally. A number of p-V curves are drawn for the two process over different ranges of pressure and volume. It will be found that a) Two adiabatic curves do not intersect b) Two isothermal curves do not intersect c) An adiabatic curve and an isothermal curve may intersect d) The magnitude of the slope of an adiabatic curve is greater than the magnitude of the slope of an isothermal curve for the same values of pressure and volume

A gas may expand either adiabatically or isothermally. A number of p-V curves are drawn for the two processes over different ranges of pressure and volume, it will be found that (i) Two adiabatic curves do not intersect (ii) two isothermal curves do not intersect (iii) an adiabatic curve and an isothermal curve may intersect. (iv) the magnitude of the slope of an adiabatic curve is greater thanthe magnitude of the slope of an isothermal curve

Adiabatic curves are much steeper than Isothermal -prove it.

The ratio of slopes of adiabatic and isothermal curves is

The curves A and B in the figure shown P-V graphs for an isothermal and an adiabatic process for an idea gas. The isothermal process is represented by the curve A.
