Solution

The correct option is A 4P0V0208P0V0=6P0V0
An ideal monoatomic gas is taken through cycle ABCA. The work done by
the gas in the step BC is 4P0V0208P0V0=6P0V0.
Note: The work done by the gas in the step AB is zero.
The work done by the gas during the cycle ABCA is ΔP×ΔV2=(2P0P0)(6V02V0)2=4P0V02.
The work done by the gas in the step BB is
W=PΔV=2P0×(6V02V0)=8P0V0
The work done by
the gas in the step BC is
4P0V0208P0V0=6P0V0
