NEET Physics First Law of Thermodynamics MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Easy-Class 11

An electric heater supplies heat to a system at a rate of 120 W. If system performs work at a rate of 80 J s⁻¹, the rate of increase in internal energy is

A

30 J s⁻¹

B

40 J s⁻¹

C

50 J s⁻¹

D

60 J s⁻¹

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The rate of increase in internal energy is given by the first law of thermodynamics: ΔU = Q - W. Here, Q = 120 J s⁻¹ and W = 80 J s⁻¹, so ΔU = 120 - 80 = 40 J s⁻¹.
