An ideal gas initially has pressure po, volume Vo, and absolute temperature To. It then undergoes the following series of processes:
I. It is heated, at constant volume, until it reaches a pressure 2po.
II. It is heated, at constant pressure, until it reaches a volume 3 V . o.
III. It is cooled, at constant volume, until it reaches a pressure po.
IV. It is cooled, at constant pressure, until it reaches a volume Vo.
a. On the axes below .
i. draw the p-V diagram representing the series of processes;
ii. label each end point with the appropriate value of absolute temperature in terms of To.
b. For this series of processes, determine the following in terms of po and Vo.
i. The net work done on the gas.
ii. The net change in internal energy
iii. The net heat absorbed
c. Determine the heat transferred during process 2 in terms of po and Vo.
