(c) ${W_{AB}} = - \,{P_0}{V_0}$, ${W_{BC}} = 0$ and ${W_{CD}} = 4{P_0}{V_0}$

==> ${W_{ABCD}} = - \,{P_0}{V_0} + 0 + 4{P_0}{V_0} = 3{P_0}{V_0}$

    A solid body of constant heat capacity $1\,J /{ }^{\circ} C$ is being heated by keeping it in contact with reservoirs in two ways :

    $(i)$ Sequentially keeping in contact with $2$ reservoirs such that each reservoir supplies same amount of heat.

    $(ii)$ Sequentially keeping in contact with 8 reservoirs such that each reservoir supplies same amount of heat.

    In both the cases body is brought from initial temperature $100^{\circ}\,C$ to final temperature $200^{\circ}\,C$. Entropy change of the body in the two cases respectively is :
