When a system is taken from state $i$ to a state $f$ along path $iaf, \,Q = 50\,J$ and $W = 20J.$ Along path $ibf, \,Q = 35J.$ If $W = - 13J$ for the curved return path $f i, Q$ for this path is ...... $J$

A

$33 $

B

$23 $

C

$-7 $

D

$-43 $

Solution

(d) $\Delta U$, remains same for both path

For path $iaf : \Delta U = \Delta Q – \Delta W = 50 – 20 = 30J$. 

For path $fi  :  \Delta U = – \,30\,J\,{\rm{and\, }}\Delta W = – 13J$ 

==> $\Delta Q = – \,30 – 13 = – \,43\;J$.
