NEET Physics Isothermal & Adiabatic Processes MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about isothermal and adiabatic processes is correct?
In an isothermal process, the temperature remains constant and the internal energy change is zero.
During an adiabatic process, heat is transferred between the system and its surroundings.
Isothermal processes involve a change in internal energy, while adiabatic processes do not.
In an adiabatic process, the system can exchange heat with its surroundings.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
In an isothermal process, the temperature remains constant, leading to no change in internal energy (∆U = 0). In contrast, adiabatic processes involve no heat exchange with the surroundings.
