In the isothermal compression of a Carnot cycle, heat is?
AReleased to cold bath
BAbsorbed from hot bath
CNeither gained nor lost
DAbsorbed from cold bath
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Released to cold bath
Compressing isothermally at the lower temperature, the gas must give out heat equal to the work done on it to the sink.
