JEE Main 2013 (Offline) Physics - Heat and Thermodynamics Question 394 English The above ppp-vvv diagram represents the thermodynamic cycle of an engine, operating with an ideal monatomic gas. The amount of heat, extracted from the source in a single cycle is
  1. A
    p0v0{p_0}{v_0}p0​v0​
  2. B
    (132)p0v0\left( {{{13} \over 2}} \right){p_0}{v_0}(213​)p0​v0​
  3. C
    (112)p0v0\left( {{{11} \over 2}} \right){p_0}{v_0}(211​)p0​v0​
  4. D
    4p0v04{p_0}{v_0}4p0​v0​

Correct answer: B

To find the heat extracted from the source in one complete cycle, we identify the parts of the cycle where heat is absorbed by the ideal monatomic gas.

Since the actual ppp-vvv diagram is not visible here, I infer the standard cycle consistent with the given options and stored answer:

  • A(v0,p0)A(v_0,p_0)A(v0​,p0​)
  • B(v0,3p0)B(v_0,3p_0)B(v0​,3p0​)
  • C(3v0,p0)C(3v_0,p_0)C(3v0​,p0​)

with the cycle A→B→C→AA \to B \to C \to AA→B→C→A.

This is a common triangular cycle in such questions.


1. Basic thermodynamic relations

For a monatomic ideal gas, CV=3R2,CP=5R2C_V = \frac{3R}{2}, \qquad C_P = \frac{5R}{2}CV​=23R​,CP​=25R​

Also, ΔU=32(P2V2−P1V1)\Delta U = \frac{3}{2}(P_2V_2 - P_1V_1)ΔU=23​(P2​V2​−P1​V1​)

and from the first law, Q=ΔU+WQ = \Delta U + WQ=ΔU+W

We compute heat on each leg.


2. Process A→BA \to BA→B (isochoric)

Here volume is constant: V=v0V=v_0V=v0​.

Initial and final states: A:(p0,v0),B:(3p0,v0)A:(p_0,v_0), \qquad B:(3p_0,v_0)A:(p0​,v0​),B:(3p0​,v0​)

Work done

Since volume is constant, WAB=0W_{AB}=0WAB​=0

Change in internal energy

ΔUAB=32(PBVB−PAVA)\Delta U_{AB} = \frac{3}{2}(P_BV_B - P_AV_A)ΔUAB​=23​(PB​VB​−PA​VA​) =32(3p0v0−p0v0)= \frac{3}{2}(3p_0v_0 - p_0v_0)=23​(3p0​v0​−p0​v0​) =32(2p0v0)=3p0v0= \frac{3}{2}(2p_0v_0)=3p_0v_0=23​(2p0​v0​)=3p0​v0​

Heat absorbed

QAB=ΔUAB+WAB=3p0v0Q_{AB}=\Delta U_{AB}+W_{AB}=3p_0v_0QAB​=ΔUAB​+WAB​=3p0​v0​

This is positive, so heat is absorbed here.


3. Process B→CB \to CB→C

Points: B:(v0,3p0),C:(3v0,p0)B:(v_0,3p_0), \qquad C:(3v_0,p_0)B:(v0​,3p0​),C:(3v0​,p0​)

This is a straight-line expansion.

Work done

For a straight line in a ppp-vvv diagram, WBC=average pressure×ΔVW_{BC}=\text{average pressure} \times \Delta VWBC​=average pressure×ΔV =3p0+p02(3v0−v0)=\frac{3p_0+p_0}{2}(3v_0-v_0)=23p0​+p0​​(3v0​−v0​) =4p02(2v0)=4p0v0=\frac{4p_0}{2}(2v_0)=4p_0v_0=24p0​​(2v0​)=4p0​v0​

Change in internal energy

At both ends, PBVB=3p0v0,PCVC=3p0v0P_BV_B = 3p_0v_0, \qquad P_CV_C = 3p_0v_0PB​VB​=3p0​v0​,PC​VC​=3p0​v0​ So, ΔUBC=32(3p0v0−3p0v0)=0\Delta U_{BC}=\frac{3}{2}(3p_0v_0-3p_0v_0)=0ΔUBC​=23​(3p0​v0​−3p0​v0​)=0

Heat absorbed

QBC=ΔUBC+WBC=4p0v0Q_{BC}=\Delta U_{BC}+W_{BC}=4p_0v_0QBC​=ΔUBC​+WBC​=4p0​v0​

This is also positive, so heat is absorbed here.


4. Process C→AC \to AC→A (isobaric compression)

Points: C:(3v0,p0),A:(v0,p0)C:(3v_0,p_0), \qquad A:(v_0,p_0)C:(3v0​,p0​),A:(v0​,p0​)

Work done

WCA=p0(v0−3v0)=−2p0v0W_{CA}=p_0(v_0-3v_0)=-2p_0v_0WCA​=p0​(v0​−3v0​)=−2p0​v0​

Change in internal energy

ΔUCA=32(p0v0−3p0v0)\Delta U_{CA}=\frac{3}{2}(p_0v_0-3p_0v_0)ΔUCA​=23​(p0​v0​−3p0​v0​) =32(−2p0v0)=−3p0v0=\frac{3}{2}(-2p_0v_0)=-3p_0v_0=23​(−2p0​v0​)=−3p0​v0​

Heat

QCA=ΔUCA+WCA=−3p0v0−2p0v0=−5p0v0Q_{CA}=\Delta U_{CA}+W_{CA}=-3p_0v_0-2p_0v_0=-5p_0v_0QCA​=ΔUCA​+WCA​=−3p0​v0​−2p0​v0​=−5p0​v0​

This is negative, so heat is rejected here.


5. Heat extracted from the source

Heat extracted from the source means the total positive heat input: Qin=QAB+QBCQ_{\text{in}} = Q_{AB}+Q_{BC}Qin​=QAB​+QBC​ =3p0v0+4p0v0= 3p_0v_0 + 4p_0v_0=3p0​v0​+4p0​v0​ =7p0v0= 7p_0v_0=7p0​v0​

This does not match any option. So the inferred diagram above is likely not the intended one.


6. Compare with stored answer

The stored correct answer is (132)p0v0\left(\frac{13}{2}\right)p_0v_0(213​)p0​v0​

This value commonly arises for a cycle where heat is absorbed in two steps giving Qin=2p0v0+92p0v0=132p0v0Q_{\text{in}} = 2p_0v_0 + \frac{9}{2}p_0v_0 = \frac{13}{2}p_0v_0Qin​=2p0​v0​+29​p0​v0​=213​p0​v0​ or an equivalent decomposition depending on the exact vertices/processes shown in the missing diagram.

Because the actual ppp-vvv diagram is not provided in the prompt, the problem cannot be solved uniquely from the visible text alone. With the diagram absent, I cannot rigorously derive the answer. Therefore I defer to the stored answer while noting the insufficiency of the given figure.


Final answer

Assuming the intended diagram is the standard one associated with the given official key, the heat extracted from the source in one cycle is (132)p0v0\boxed{\left(\frac{13}{2}\right)p_0v_0}(213​)p0​v0​​

So the correct option is B.
