Reason (R): Change in internal energy of cyclic process is zero.
Solution:
Concept: T-S diagram and cyclic processes. The area enclosed by a (T-S) diagram for a cyclic process represents the net heat exchanged, ( Q_{net} ), not the work done. For a cyclic process, ( Delta U = 0 ) is true, but Assertion (A) is false. Therefore, both (A) and (R) are false in relation to the explanation.
