Question

3 moles of an ideal monoatomic gas perform a cycle shown in Fig. 16.19. The gas temperatures $T_{A} = 400 K, T_{B} = 800 K, T_{C} = 2400 K, T_{D} = 1200 K .$ Find the work done by the gas.

Solution

The correct option is A $20 k J$
Process A,D,B and C are isobaric.
A,B,C,D process is isochoric because $\frac{P}{T} = c o n s t a n t$ (Passes through origin, work done during AB,CD=0)
$W_{B C} = 3 R (T_{C} - T_{B})$
$W_{A D} = 3 R (T_{A} - T_{D})$
Total work done is $W_{B C} + W_{A D} = 3 R \times 800 = 2400 R = 20 k J$
