MCQ
If a system undergoes contraction of volume then the work done by the system will be
- AZero
- BNegligible
- ✓Negative
- DPositive
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
Negative
c
(c) $\Delta W = P\Delta V;$ here $\Delta V$ is negative so $\Delta W$ will be negative
(c) $\Delta W = P\Delta V;$ here $\Delta V$ is negative so $\Delta W$ will be negative
