An ideal gaseous sample at initial state (P0, V0, T0) is allowed to expand to volume 2V0 using two different processes. For the first process, the equation of process is 2PV2 = K1 and for the second process, the equation of the process is PV = K2. Then

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Both start from the same state, so K1 = 2P0V02 and K2 = P0V0. Process 1 (PV2 = const): W1 = ∫V02V0(P0V02)/(V2)dV = P0V02(1/(V0) - 1/(2V0)) = 0.5 P0V0. Process 2 (isothermal): W2 = P0V0ln 2 = 0.693 P0V0. So W2 > W1, which is (b).
