In the $p-V$ diagram below, the dashed curved line is an adiabat.For a process that is described by a straight line joining two points $X$ and $Y$ on the adiabat (solid line in the diagram) heat is (Hint consider the variation in temperature from $X$ to $Y$ along the straight line)
  • Aabsorbed throughout from $X$ to $Y$
  • Breleased throughout from $X$ to $Y$
  • Cabsorbed from $X$ upto an intermediate point $Z$ (not shown in the figure) and then released from $Z$ to $Y$
  • Dreleased from $X$ upto an intermediate point $Z$ (not shown in the figure) and then absorbed from $Z$ to $Y$
