A cyclic process ABCD is shown in PV diagram for an ideal gas.

Which of the following diagram represents the same process ?

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

In the given P–V diagram, AB and CD are horizontal, so they represent isobaric processes (constant pressure).

For an ideal gas, . At constant pressure, , so these processes appear as sloping straight lines on a V–T graph.

Segments BC and DA are vertical in the P–V diagram, indicating isochoric processes (constant volume).

In a V–T graph, constant-volume processes are represented by horizontal lines.

Matching the sequence A → B → C → D → A with these conditions gives the diagram shown in Option (C).
