The work done in isothermal compression compared to that in adiabatic compression will be

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option B
Since, the area under $$P-V$$   plot for isothermal is less than the area under $$p-v$$   plot for adiabatic process during compression. We can say adiabatic work done is more than isothermal work done.

The answer will be absolutely A
Because when we see the graph of P-V
The area of isothermal compression is less than that the area of adiabatic compression.
That means the work done on P-V graph is equal with The area made by the P-V.
