The $P-V$ diagram shows seven curved paths (connected by vertical paths) that can be followed by a gas. Which two of them should be parts of a closed cycle if the net work done by the gas is to be at its maximum value

A

$ac$

B

$cg$

C

$af$

D

$cd$

Solution

(c) Area enclosed between $a$ and $f$ is maximum. So work done in closed cycles follows $a$ and $f$ is maximum.
