Question:
A cyclic process ABCD is shown in the P–V diagram. Which of the following curves represent the same process?
A cyclic process ABCD is shown in the P–V diagram. Which of the following curves represent the same process?
Show Hint
Cyclic processes must preserve direction and sequence of states.
Updated On: Mar 20, 2026
- Option a
- Option b
- Option c
- Option d
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: In a cyclic process, state variables return to initial values.
Step 2: Direction of arrows must be same in both diagrams.
Step 3: Option (D) correctly represents the same cycle.
