उत्तर
A is isothermal and B is adiabatic
The slope of an adiabatic process is greater than that of an isothermal process. Since Aand B are initiated from the same initial state, both cannot be isothermal or adiabatic, as they would be overlapping. But the curve of process B is steeper than the curve of process A. Hence, A is isothermal and B is adiabatic.
