A perfect gas goes from state $A$ to state $B$ by absorbing $8 	imes 10^{5}\ J$ of heat and doing $6.5 	imes 10^{5}\ J$ of external work. It is now transferred between the same two states in another process in which it absorbs $10^{5}$ J of heat. In the second process,

(b) $dU = dQ - dW = 8 	imes 10^{5} - 6.5 	imes 10^{5} = 1.5 	imes 10^{5}\ J$
In the 2nd process, $dU$ remains the same
$	herefore\ dW = dQ - dU = 10^{5} - 1.5 	imes 10^{5} = - 0.5 	imes 10^{5}\ J$

Q. A perfect gas goes from state $A$ to state $B$ by absorbing $8 \times 10^{5}\ J$ of heat and doing $6.5 \times 10^{5}\ J$ of external work. It is now transferred between the same two states in another process in which it absorbs $10^{5}$ J of heat. In the second process,
