QUESTION:
Consider a monatomic ideal gas that undergoes the four processes shown in Figure 18–19. Is the work done by the gas positive, negative, or zero on process (a) AB, (b) BC, (c) CD, and (d) DA? Explain in each case. (e) If the heat added to the gas on process AB is 27 J, how much work does the gas do during that process?
ANSWER:Solution 80 GP
Step 1 of 3
Here, we have to mention whether the work done in different processes is positive, negative or zero.
The equation for work done in a thermodynamic process is,
-----(1)
Where, - Pressure of the system
- Change in volume
