One mole of an ideal gas undergoes a cyclic process,consisting of two isochores and two isobars. Temperatures at points $1$ and $3$ are $T_1$ and $T_3$ respectively. Find the work done by the gas over the cycle,if points $2$ and $4$ lie on the same isotherm.

  • A
    $\frac{R(T_1+T_3)}{2}$
  • B
    $R(\sqrt{T_3}-\sqrt{T_1})^2$
  • C
    $\frac{R}{2}(\sqrt{T_1}+\sqrt{T_3})^2$
  • D
    $R\sqrt{T_1T_3}$
