Statement-1: A quasi-static process is so called because it is a sudden and large change of the system.
Statement-2: An adiabatic process is no quasi-static because it is a sudden and large change of the system.
Statement-2: An adiabatic process is no quasi-static because it is a sudden and large change of the system.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true, Statement-2 is not the correct explanation for Statement-1
Option D is correct. Statement-1 is false because a quasi-static process is a slow, gradual change. Statement-2 is true because an adiabatic process can be a sudden change, and therefore not quasi-static.
