Question

One mole of a monoatomic ideal gas is taken through the following cycle starting with pressure P0, volume V0, and temperature T0. An isochoric compression to 5P0, an isobaric expansion to 3V0, an isochoric expansion followed by an isobaric compression back to the initial state. In terms of R and T0, calculate the following quantities. (a) Draw the pV diagram. (b) The total heat entering the system per cycle. (c) The total heat leaving the system per cycle. (d) The efficiency of the engine. (e) The efficiency of a Carnot engine operating between the high and low temperatures of the cycle.

Explanation / Answer

(c) The total heat leaving the system per cycle
