The P-V diagram of a gas undergoing a cyclic process (ABCDA) is shown in the graph, where P is in units of Nm^(-2) and V in cm^(3). Identify the incorrect statement.

Answer»

0.4 J of work is done by the gas from A to B
0.2 J of work is done on the gas from C to D.
No work is done by the gas from B to C.
Work is done by the gas from B to C and on the gas from D to A.

Solution :In going from B to C and from D to A, V = CONSTANT.
So, `DELTA V = 0. :. W = P Delta V = 0`
