Hyperbolic process: the Hyperbolic process is very similar to Isothermal process but there is a difference between them is The working medium in the hyperbolic process is vapour and The working medium in the Isothermal process is gas.
Now we can say in hyperbolic process product of pressure and volume remains constant. This statement is similar to the isothermal process.
Hope it will help you.

Actually, for superheated steam, isothermal process is also hyperbolic process. So, since hyperbolic process is only a special case of the former, answer should have been either (a) or both (a) & (b).

Given: PV=C, so isothermal process. Isothermal process is also called 'Hyperbolic process'. As the P vs V shows hyperbolic curve for isothermal process.
So, option A & B both are correct.
So, option A & B both are correct.

The correct answer is polytropic because PV * n= constant, where as in isothermal process PV = T constant. As question asks about the product of PV constant, not Temperature constant.

I'm satisfied with your answer. As isothermal process are also known as hyperbolic process because of the design if the curve p-v i.e a hyperbola.

The question asked about Product of (PV=C) means, P1V1=P2V2.
Not for Temperature constant. Hence, the answer should be (B).
Not for Temperature constant. Hence, the answer should be (B).

Please I thought that the product of pressure, P. And volume, V. Which is PV = C is an Isotropic process.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Both A & b are correct answers because an isothermal process is also called hyperbolic process.

PV = Constant.
ie. Isothermal process and its also called "" Hyperbolic "".

PV=CONSTANT ; T is the constant : Boyle's law.
This is an hyperbolic or isothermal process.
