Three processes compose a thermodynamic cycle shown in the $PV$ diagram. Process $1\rightarrow 2$ takes place at constant temperature. Process $2\rightarrow 3$ takes place at constant volume,and process $3\rightarrow 1$ is adiabatic. During the complete cycle,the total amount of work done is $10\,J$. During process $2\rightarrow 3$,the internal energy decreases by $20\,J$ and during process $3\rightarrow 1$,$20\,J$ of work is done on the system. How much heat is added to the system during process $1\rightarrow 2$ (in $,J$)?

  • A
    $0$
  • B
    $10$
  • C
    $20$
  • D
    $30$

What are thermodynamic processes?

Two cylinders $A$ and $B$ fitted with pistons contain equal amounts of an ideal diatomic gas at $300 \ K$. The piston of $A$ is free to move,while that of $B$ is held fixed. The same amount of heat is given to the gas in each cylinder. If the rise in temperature of the gas in $A$ is $30 \ K$,then the rise in temperature of the gas in $B$ is ..... $K$.
