During an expansion process, the pressure of a gas changes from 100 to 700 kPa according to the relation P = aV + b, where a = 1220 kPa/m³ and b is a constant. If the initial volume of the gas is 0.2 m³, calculate the work done during the process. Answer: 197 kJ

Step 1
The relationship between pressure and volume is given by P = aV + b, where a = 1220 kPa/m^3 and b is a constant. The initial volume V_i of the gas is 0.2 m^3. Show more…

4. Gas in a container is at a pressure of 3.50 atm and a volume of 1.00 m3. What is the work done by the gas if it expands at constant pressure to twice its initial volume?

In the process where the product of pressure and the volume is constant, a gas compression is carried out from an intial pressure of 200 kPa to a final pressure of 800 kPa. Consisting that the initial specific volume is 0.10 m^3 /kg, determine the work done per kilogram of gas.
