MCQ
A gas expands under constant pressure $P$ from volume ${V_1}$ to ${V_2}$. The work done by the gas is
- ✓$P({V_2} - {V_1})$
- B$P({V_1} - {V_2})$
- C$P(V_1^\gamma - V_2^\gamma )$
- D$P\frac{{{V_1}{V_2}}}{{{V_2} - {V_1}}}$
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
$P({V_2} - {V_1})$
a
(a) Work done $ = P\Delta V = P({V_2} - {V_1})$
(a) Work done $ = P\Delta V = P({V_2} - {V_1})$
