Suppose 0.2 moles of a monatomic ideal gas undergoes a Carnot cycle with temperatures TH = 600 K and TC = 200 K. The initial pressure is PA = 10.0 x 105 Pa, and during the isothermal expansion at temperature TH the volume doubles.
1. Draw a PV diagram of the cycle. Make a table of the pressure, volume, temperature, and internal energy at each of the 4 points terminating a process (initial state
(A), after the isothermal expansion
(B), after the adiabatic expansion
(C), and after the isothermal compression
(D)). Indicate on the sketcheach of the processes.
2. How much heat is exchanged during each step of the cycle?
3. How much work is done during each step of the cycle?
