The $\mathrm{p}-\mathrm{V}$ diagram for a fixed mass of an ideal gas undergoing cyclic process is as shown in figure. AB represents isothermal process and CA represents adiabatic process. Which one of the following graphs represents the p - T diagram of this cyclic process?
(G)
(H)
(F)
(E)
Solution
Since $A B$ is an isothermal process, The $\mathrm{P}-\mathrm{T}$ diagram must be perpendicular to X -axis denoting temperature.
