Q1 FREE PREVIEW

Assertion: On increasing the pressure, the volume decrease is more in an isothermal process than in an adiabatic process.

Reason: The adiabatic process is governed by the equation:\(P{V}^{\gamma }=\text{constant}\)

a

Assertion is correct and Reason is false

b

Assertion is correct and Reason is correct

c

Assertion is false and Reason is correct

d

Assertion is false and Reason is false

✓ Correct answer: b)

Assertion is correct and Reason is correct

Explanation
  • Assertion: Correct

    • In an isothermal process (\(PV=\) constant), an increase in pressure leads to a larger decrease in volume compared to an adiabatic process (\(P{V}^{\gamma }=\)constant) because temperature remains constant in the isothermal case.
  • Reason: Correct

    • The adiabatic process follows the equation \(P{V}^{\gamma }=\) constant, which correctly describes its behavior.
  • Logical Connection:

    • Since the reason correctly explains the assertion, both are correct.
Final Answer:

\(B\ \text{Assertion is correct and Reason is correct.}\)B​Assertion is correct and Reason is correct.
