In the following indicator diagram, the net amount of work done will be

A

positive

B

negative

C

zero

D

infinity

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
b. Work done during process 1 is positive while during process 2 it is negative, because process 1 is clockwise while process 2 is anticloc wise. But area enclosed `P -V` graph (i.e., work done) in process 1 is smaller, so net work done will be negative.
