11.Thermodynamics
medium
The $P-V$ diagram of a system undergoing thermodynamic transformation is shown in figure. The work done on the system in going from $A → B → C$ is $50 J$ and $ 20\, cal$ heat is given to the system. The change in internal energy between $A$ and $C$ is ...... $J$

A
$34 $
B
$70 $
C
$84 $
D
$134 $
Solution
(d) Heat given $\Delta Q = 20\,cal = 20 \times 4.2\, = 84\,J$.
Work done $\Delta W = -50 J$ [As process is anticlockwise]
By first law of thermodynamics
==> $\Delta U = \Delta Q – \Delta W = 84 – ( – \,50)\, = 134J$
