$A$ thermodynamic system is taken from an initial state $i$ with internal energy $U_i = 100 \ J$ to the final state $f$ along two different paths $iaf$ and $ibf$,as schematically shown in the figure. The work done by the system along the paths $ia$,$af$,$ib$ and $bf$ are $W_{ia} = 50 \ J$,$W_{af} = 200 \ J$,$W_{ib} = 50 \ J$ and $W_{bf} = 100 \ J$ respectively. The heat supplied to the system along the paths $iaf$ and $ibf$ are $Q_{iaf}$ and $Q_{ibf}$ respectively. If the internal energy of the system in the state $b$ is $U_b = 200 \ J$ and $Q_{iaf} = 500 \ J$,the ratio $Q_{ibf} / Q_{iaf}$ is:

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $3$
  • D
    $4$
