Q.

An ideal gas undergoes an expansion from a state with temperature T1 and volume V1 through three different polytropic processes A, B and C as shown in the PV diagram. If |EA|,|EB| and |EC| be the magnitude of changes in internal energy along the three paths respectively, then:

Detailed Solution

Initial state is same for all the three processes (say initial internal energy = E0).

In the final state,

If T1 < T2 , then E0 < Ef for all the three processes and hence

VA = VB = VC and PA > PB > PC  PAVA > PBVB > PCVC .So final temperature of A is maximum and for C it is minimum .

Hence EA>EB>EC.

(E0  EA ) < (E0  EB ) < (E0  EC)

|EA|<|EB|<|EC|

If T1 < T2 then E0 < Ef for all the three processes and hence (EA  E0 ) > (EB  E0 ) > (EC  E0 )  

|EA|>|EB|>|EC|
