Question

(10) [12 points] A reversible engine contains 0.20 moles of monatomic ideal gas. Initially, the gas is at \( 600 \mathrm{~K} \) and confined to \( 2.0 \mathrm{~L} \). The gas undergoes the following cycle: \( (A) \rightarrow(B) \) Isothermal expansion to \( 4.0 \mathrm{~L} \). (B) \( \rightarrow \) (C) Constant volume cooling to \( 300 \mathrm{~K} \). (C) \( \rightarrow \) (D) Isothermal compression to \( 2.0 \mathrm{~L} \). (D) \( \rightarrow \) (A) Constant volume heating to \( 600 \mathrm{~K} \). (a) Draw a PV diagram representing this cycle. (b) Which processes add heat? (c) For the processes where heat is added, calculate the heat in joules. (d) Calculate the net work in joules. (e) Calculate the efficiency of this engine. (f) Compare it to the efficiency of a Carnot engine operating between the same temperatures.
