    An ideal gas is taken via path ABCA as shown in figure. The net work done in the whole cycle is

    A)  \[3{{p}_{1}}{{V}_{1}}\]                 

    B)  \[-3{{p}_{1}}{{V}_{1}}\]

    C)  \[6{{p}_{1}}{{V}_{1}}\]                 

    D)  Zero

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    The net work done in the whole cycle is                 \[=\frac{1}{2}\times (3{{p}_{1}})\times (2{{V}_{1}})=3{{p}_{1}}{{V}_{1}}\] If the cycle is anticlockwise work done is negative \[\therefore \]  \[{{W}_{cycle}}=-3{{p}_{1}}{{V}_{1}}\]
