In which of the following processes does the internal energy of a system remain constant?
Correct Answer: Isothermal process
- Step 1: Understand what internal energy is. It is the total energy contained within a system, including kinetic and potential energy of the particles.
- Step 2: Learn about different thermodynamic processes. These include isothermal, adiabatic, isochoric, and isobaric processes.
- Step 3: Identify the isothermal process. This is a process that occurs at a constant temperature.
- Step 4: Know that for an ideal gas, the internal energy depends only on temperature.
- Step 5: Since the temperature remains constant in an isothermal process, the internal energy also remains constant.
