Step 1
- We need to calculate the work done on the gas for each process shown in the \( p \)-\( V \) diagrams. Work done on a gas in a \( p \)-\( V \) diagram is the area under the curve. Show more…

A gas expands from $I$ to $F$ along the three paths indicated in Figure $\mathrm{P} 12.5$ . Calculate the work done on the gas along paths (a) $I A F,$ (b) $I F,$ and $(\mathrm{c})$ IBF.

- IP An ideal gas is taken through the three processes shown in Figure $18-20 .$ Fill in the missing entries in the following table: $$ \begin{array}{llll} \hline & \mathrm{Q} & \boldsymbol{w} & \Delta \boldsymbol{U} \\ \hline \mathrm{A} \rightarrow \mathrm{B} & (\mathrm{a}) & (\mathrm{b}) & -38 \mathrm{J} \\ \mathrm{B} \rightarrow \mathrm{C} & (\mathrm{c}) & -89 \mathrm{J} & -82 \mathrm{J} \\ \mathrm{C} \rightarrow \mathrm{A} & 332 \mathrm{J} & (\mathrm{d}) & (\mathrm{e}) \\ \hline \end{array} $$
