Question 480: Thermodynamics & KTG

Question

A system goes from $A$ to $B$ via two processes $I$ and $II$ as shown in figure. If $\Delta {U_1}$ and $\Delta {U_2}$ are the changes in internal energies in the processes $I$ and $II$ respectively, then

Accepted Answer

Change in internal energy do not depend upon the path followed by the process. It only depends on initial and final states $i.e.,$ $\Delta U{}_1 = \Delta {U_2}$

Answer

relation between $\Delta {U_1}$ and $\Delta {U_2}$ can not be determined

Answer

$\Delta {U_1} = \Delta {U_2}$

Answer

$\Delta {U_2} < \Delta {U_1}$

Answer

$\Delta {U_2} > \Delta {U_1}$
