Question

0.06 moles of a monatomic gas undergoes the cycle A ?B?C?A as shown on the P-V diagram below.

(a) In the transition A?B the gas expands adiabatically from 1x10-3 to 2x10-3 m3 and the temperature drops from 600K to 400K. During this transition the internal energy reduces by 149 J. What is the work done on the gas? J

(b) During the transition B?C, the volume decreases from 2x10-3 m3 liters to 1x10-3 m3 liter at constant pressure (isobaric). What is the work done on the gas? J

(c) During the isobaric (constant pressure) transition B?C, what is the heat transferred to the gas? J

(d) During the constant volume (isovolumetric) transition C?A, the internal energy increases by 299 J. What is the heat transferred to the gas? J

(e) For the cycle A?B?C?A, what is the efficiency of the heat engine? %

(f) What is the efficiency for a Carnot cycle running between 200K and 600K. %

Explanation / Answer

workdone = p1v1^* [(v2)^(1-) - (v1)^(1-)]/1- in adiabatic

in constant pressure p(v2-v1)

in constant volume v(p2-p1)

add all these
