MCQ
A thermodynamic system is taken through the cycle $\text{PQRSP}$ process. The net work done by the system isImage
  • $20 \mathrm{~J}$
  • B
    $-20 \mathrm{~J}$
  • C
    $400 \mathrm{~J}$
  • D
    $-374 \mathrm{~J}$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$20 \mathrm{~J}$
Work done by the system $=$ Area of shaded portion on $P-V$ diagram
$[=(300-100)10^{-6} \times(200-10) \times 10^3=20 \mathrm{~J}]$
