In a cyclic process, the amount of heat given to a system is equal to

A

net increase in internal energy

B

net work done by the system

C

net decrease in internal energy

D

net change in volume

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
We have heat equation
`Delta Q = Delta U + Delta W`
For cyclic process, `Delta U = 0`
So, `Delta Q = Delta W`
So in a cyclic process, the amount of heat given to a system is equal to net work done by the system.
