  • Continuously increases
  • B
    Continuously decreases
  • C
    First increases, then decreases
  • D
    First decreases, then increases

Answer

Correct option: A.
Continuously increases
(a) As the volume is continuously increasing and the work of expansion is always positive, so the work done by the system continuously increases.
