The figure shows the \((P\text-V)\) diagram of an ideal gas undergoing a change of state from \(A\) to \(B.\) Four different paths \(\mathrm{I, II, III}\) and \(\mathrm{IV},\) as shown in the figure, may lead to the same change of state.
(a) | The change in internal energy is the same in cases \(\mathrm{IV}\) and \(\mathrm{III}\) but not in cases \(\mathrm{I}\) and \(\mathrm{II}.\) |
(b) | The change in internal energy is the same in all four cases. |
(c) | The work done is maximum in case \(\mathrm{I}.\) |
(d) | The work done is minimum in case \(\mathrm{II}.\) |
Which of the following options contains only correct statements?
1. | (b), (c) and (d) only | 2. | (a) and (d) only |
3. | (b) and (c) only | 4. | (a), (c) and (d) only |
