Isovolumetric
• Along the constant
volume path AD no work is
done, heat is lost. B
• Along the constant D Isobaric
pressure path DB the gas V
does work and absorbs
heat.
Clicker Question
• Suppose the gas follows • A
the path ADB. How P
does the internal
energy lost along AD A
Isovolumetric
compare with that
gained along DB?
