Type: MCQ-diagram based-Medium-Class 11

Consider a diagram representing a thermodynamic system undergoing a change of state with heat transfer and work done. Which equation correctly represents the change in internal energy, ΔU\Delta U, for this system?

Question diagram
A

ΔU=q+w\Delta U = q + w

B

ΔU=qw\Delta U = q - w

C

ΔU=wq\Delta U = w - q

D

ΔU=q×w\Delta U = q \times w

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The first law of thermodynamics is mathematically expressed as ΔU=q+w\Delta U = q + w, where ΔU\Delta U is the change in internal energy, qq is the heat added to the system, and ww is the work done on the system.
