When a system is taken from state i to state f along the path iaf, it is found that `Q=50 cal and W=20 cal`. Along the path ibf `Q=36cal`. W along the path ibf is

A

`6` cal

B

`16` cal

C

`66` cal

D

`14` cal

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
As a thermodynamic system is taken from state to state f, then the internal energy of the system remains the same irrespective of the path followed `(Q-W)_(faf) = (Q-W)_(lbf) implies 50 -20 = 36 W implies W = 6` cal
