In Figure, an ideal gas is carried around the cyclic process. How much work is done in one cycle if P0 = 8atm and V0 = 7.00 liters.
A
5656 J
B
–5656 J
C
10,600 J
D
11,300 J
Answer
–5656 J
Explanation
Solution
Work done is area
under the curve
W = – PoVo
= –8 × (105 × 1.01) × 7 × 10–3
W = – 56 × 1.01 × 102 Joule
W = –5656 Joule
