Ta=400K

Tb=800K

Tc=592K

 Process a→b is at constant volume, process b→c is adiabatic, and process c-> a is at constant pressure of 2 atm. The value of y for this gas is 1.40.

 (a) Find the pressure and volume at points a, b and c

 (b) Calculate Q, W, and AU for each of the processes.

 (c) Find the net work done by the gas in the cycle

 (d) find the net heat flow into the engine in one cycle,

 (e) What is the thermal efficiency of the engine?
