An ideal gas has a specific heat at constant pressure CP=5R2. The gas is kept in a closed vessel of volume V0 at temperature T0 and pressure P0. An amount of 10 P0V0 of heat is supplied to the gas. Show the process on P-V diagram

Solution
As the gas is present in a closed vessel, thus the heat is supplied at constant volume i.e the process is isochoric.
Given : PA=PoVA=Vo
Pressure of gas at B PB=233Po (solved earlier)
Based on these calculations, the P-V graph is shown above.
