During some actual expansion and compression processes in
Chapter 4, Problem 12P(choose chapter or problem)
During some actual expansion and compression processes in piston-cylinder devices, the gases have been observed to satisfy the relationship \(P V^{n}=C\), where \(n\) and \(C\) are constants. Calculate the work done when a gas expands from \(350 \mathrm{kPa}\) and \(0.03 \mathrm{~m}^{3}\) to a final volume of \(0.2 \mathrm{~m}^{3}\) for the case of \(n=1.5\).
