MCQ
In the following indicator diagram, the net amount of work done will be
Image
  • A
    Positive
  • Negative
  • C
    Zero
  • D
    Infinity

Answer

Correct option: B.
Negative
(b) The cyclic process 1 is clockwise where as process 2 is anticlockwise. Clockwise area represents positive work and anticlockwise area represents negative work. Since negative area $(2)$ > positive area (1), hence net work done is negative.
