Questions  

An ideal gas is taken through the cycle A ➔ B ➔ C ➔ A, as shown in the figure. If the net heat supplied to the gas in the cycle is 5 J, the work done by the gas in the process C ➔ A is:

 

a
- 5 J
b
-10 J
c
-15 J
d
-20 J

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Q=W+∆U⇒Wcycle=Q-∆U=5-0=5J But                     Tcycle=WAB+WBC+WCA So,                             5=10(2-1)+0+WCA ⇒                              WCA=-5 J
