MCQ
In adiabatic expansion
- A$\Delta U = 0$
- ✓$\Delta U = $negative
- C$\Delta U = $positive
- D$\Delta W = $zero
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
$\Delta U = $negative
b
(b) In case of adiabatic expansion $\Delta W$= positive and $\Delta Q = 0$
from FLOT $\Delta Q = \Delta U + \Delta W$
(b) In case of adiabatic expansion $\Delta W$= positive and $\Delta Q = 0$
from FLOT $\Delta Q = \Delta U + \Delta W$
==> $\Delta U = - \Delta W$ i.e., $\Delta U$will be negative.
