Question
Chapter 3, Problem 3.24NP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The differential
Concept Introduction: A differential is said to be exact only if the integral of the function is path independent. (Independent of path means that the system depends only on starting and finishing points and not on the path followed to reach the finishing point.) So,
for a differential,
