In a thermodynamic process, a system absorbs 2 kilo calorie of heat and at the same time does 500 J of work. What is the change in internal energy of the system :

a
–500 J
b
500 J
c
7900 J
d
8900 J

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Since   dQ=dU+dW∴ dU=dQ−dW.Here   dQ=2000 cal. =2000×4.2=8400J and  dW=500 J∴ dU=8400−500=7900JThus, correct choice is (3).
