An ideal gas with constant heat capacity $C_V = \frac{3}{2} n R$ is made to carry out a cycle that is depicted by a triangle in the figure given below. The following statement is true about the cycle.

  • A
    The efficiency is given by $1 - \frac{p_1 V_1}{p_2 V_2}$
  • B
    The efficiency is given by $1 - \frac{1}{2} \frac{p_1 V_1}{p_2 V_2}$
  • C
    Net heat absorbed in the cycle is $(p_2 - p_1)(V_2 - V_1)$
  • D
    Heat absorbed in part $AC$ is given by $2(p_2 V_2 - p_1 V_1) + \frac{1}{2}(p_1 V_2 - p_2 V_1)$
