W = -P*
Where
W stands for work done
P stands for pressure
for change in volume
For 1
W = Area under the line which is the sum of area of triangle and rectangle below it
W = 0.5*1.5*105*2.5 + 2*105*2.5 = 187500 + 500000 = 687500 J
Since volume is increasing it will be negative
For 2
It will be the area of the rectangle = 500000J
Since volume is decreasing work will be positive
For 3
Work done is zero as there is no change in volume
Hence net work done
-687500 + 500000 = -187500 J

A heat engine using a monatomic gas follows the cycle shown in the pV diagram. P11 The gas starts out at point 1 with a volume of V1 = 318 cm", a pressure of p1 = 147 kPa, and a temperature of 317 K. The gas is held at a constant volume while it is heated until its temperature reaches 455 K (point 2). The gas is then allowed to expand adiabatically until its pressure is again 147 kPa (point...
Cycles in a heat engine The basic idea of a heat engine is to add heat to a gas, and have the gas perform work on its environment via an expansion, which in turn is used to power motion. The gas is then restored to its original temperature and the cycle begins again. You can assume that the same amount of gas remains in the engine during the cycle. A convenient way to think about these cycles is a pressure...
