Q 8MCQ1 Mark
An ideal gas is taken from point $A$ to the point $B$, as shown in the $P$ - $V$ diagram, keeping the temperature constant. The work done in the process is
Image
  • A
    $\left(P_A-P_B\right)\left(V_B-V_A\right)$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2}\left(P_B-P_A\right)\left(V_B+V_A\right)$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2}\left(P_B-P_A\right)\left(V_B-V_A\right)$
  • $\frac{1}{2}\left(P_B+P_A\right)\left(V_B-V_A\right)$
