Q112 / 180 · NEET 2015 (Phase 1) · Physics
Figure below shows two paths that may be taken by a gas to go from a state A to a state C.

In process AB, 400 J of heat is added to the system and in process BC, 100 J of heat is added to the system. The heat absorbed by the system in the process AC will be:

In process AB, 400 J of heat is added to the system and in process BC, 100 J of heat is added to the system. The heat absorbed by the system in the process AC will be:
- A380 J
- B500 J
- Correct answerC460 J
- D300 J
Solution
In cyclic process ABCA,
Closed loop area
Closed loop area
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
