Thermodynamics

Solution:

From $A \longrightarrow B$, volume increasing, pressure constant
$B \longrightarrow C$, Pressure $\propto \frac{1}{\text { Volume }}$
$ \Rightarrow $ Temperature constant
Same for $D \longrightarrow A$
$C \longrightarrow D$ pressure decreasing, volume constant
So $P \propto T$
