The $PV$ diagram shows four different possible reversible processes performed on a monatomic ideal gas. Process $A$ is isobaric (constant pressure). Process $B$ is isothermal (constant temperature). Process $C$ is adiabatic. Process $D$ is isochoric (constant volume). For which process(es) does the temperature of the gas decrease?

  • A
    Process $A$ only
  • B
    Process $C$ only
  • C
    Only Processes $C$ and $D$
  • D
    Only Processes $B$,$C$ and $D$

Consider a block of conducting material of resistivity ' $\rho$ ' shown in the figure. Current ' $I$ ' enters at ' $A$ ' and leaves from ' $D$ '. We apply the superposition principle to find the voltage ' $\Delta V$ ' developed between ' $B$ ' and ' $C$ '. The calculation is done in the following steps:
$(i)$ Take current ' $I$ ' entering from ' $A$ ' and assume it to spread over a hemispherical surface in the block.
(ii) Calculate the field $E(r)$ at distance ' $r$ ' from $A$ by using Ohm's law $E = \rho j$,where $j$ is the current per unit area at ' $r$ '.
(iii) From the ' $r$ ' dependence of $E(r)$,obtain the potential $V(r)$.
(iv) Repeat $(i)$,$(ii)$ and $(iii)$ for current ' $I$ ' leaving ' $D$ ' and superpose results for ' $A$ ' and ' $D$ '.
For current entering at $A$,the electric field at a distance ' $r$ ' from $A$ is
