It may be noted that the hyperbolic process is governed by Boyle, s law i.e. p we = constant. If we plot a graph of pressure and volume, during the process as shown in fig we shall get a rectangular hyperbola. Hence, this process is termed as a hyperbolic process. It is merely a theoretical case and has a little importance from the subject point of view. Its practical application is an isothermal process.

In an isothermal process, the product of pressure and volume is constant, hence correct option is yes.

According to me, Correct answer must be yes.

The correct answer is A, Yes.

Correct answer is A.

1. Hyperbolic Process- it is the process where the gas is heated or expanded in such a way that the product of its pressure and volume remains constant. This process is governed by Boyle's law.

Mathematically, p * v = constant

2. Isothermal Process- it is the process in which the temperature of the working substance remains constant during expansion or compression. In an isothermal process, there is no change in temperature and internal energy.

I think the isothermal process is the right answer. But If hyperbolic process are available then then we choose hyprobalic process right.

Heating does not signify the increase in temp.

Its only correct for ideal gases not for all gases

This process is known as hyperbolic process.
