    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                                [IIT-JEE (Screening) 2002; RPMT 2004]

    A)            ? 5 J

    B)            ? 10 J

    C)            ? 15 J

    D)            ? 20 J

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                       For cyclic process. Total work done \[={{W}_{AB}}+{{W}_{BC}}+{{W}_{CA}}\] DWAB = PDV = 10(2 ? 1) = 10J  and DWBC =0 (as V = constant) From FLOT, DQ = DU + DW DU = 0 (Process ABCA is cyclic) Þ DQ = DWAB + DWBC + DWCA Þ   5 = 10 + 0 + DWCA Þ DWCA = ? 5 J
