Physics

Construct a closed PV-cycle for a gas of N=12^22 particles, so that the final point is equal to theinitial point. For each step and assuming that this is an ideal gas(so PV=NkT) and also that there is no loss of heat due toinefficiency, a) calculate/estimate the total work done BY thesystem (not ON the system) for each step (if your step isn't'straight', you'll have to approximate the area under the curve),b) for each step, use the ideal gas law to estimate thetemperatures at the endpoints of each step, and therefore thechange in internal energy U, c) combining b) with a), estimate theheat added or withdrawn from the system for each step.
