Two mol of an ideal gas is taken through a reversible cycle as shown in Figure B6. Process bc is an adiabatic expansion, with pb?=1×106Pa and Vb?=1×10?3m3. Volume Vc?=7Vb?. The gas is monatomic. (a) Determine the energy added to the gas as heat in process ab. (8 marks) (b) Determine the energy leaving the gas as heat in process ca. (4 marks) (c) Determine the net work done by the gas through the cycle. (4 marks) (d) Determine the efficiency of the cycle if it is working in a heat engine. (4 marks)
