A sample of an ideal gas is taken through a cycle a shown in figure. It absorbs $50J$ of energy during the process $AB$, no heat during $BC$, rejects $70J$ during $CA.$ $40J$ of work is done on the gas during $BC$. Internal energy of gas at $A$ is $1500J$, the internal energy at $C$ would be ........ $J$

A

$1590 $

B

$1620 $

C

$1540 $

D

$1570 $

Solution

(a) $\Delta {W_{AB}} = 0$ as $ V  =$ constant  

$\therefore$ $\Delta {Q_{AB}} = \Delta {U_{AB}} = 50J$  (Given)

${U_A} = 1500J$     $\therefore$  ${U_B} = (1500 + 50)J = 1550J$

$\Delta {W_{BC}} = – \Delta {U_{BC}} = – 40J$(Given)

$\therefore$  $\Delta {U_{BC}} = 40J$             $\therefore$ ${U_C} = (1550 + 40)J = 1590J$
