Question

An ideal gas is taken through a cyclic thermodynamic process through four steps 1, 2, 3, 4 respectively. The amounts of heat involved in these steps are Q1=5960 J,Q2=5585 J,Q3=2980 J and Q4=3645 J respectively. The corresponding quantities of work involved are W1=2200 J, W2=8250 J, W3=1100 J and W4 respectively. The value of W4 is

Solution

The correct option is B 2860 J
In a cyclic process , ΔU=0
From, first law of thermodynamics
Q=ΔU+W ...(i)
For the cyclic process Q=Q1+Q2+Q3+Q4
Net work done in cyclic process is,
W=W1+W2+W3+W4
Hence from Eq(i),
Q1+Q2+Q3+Q4=W1+W2+W3+W4
W4=(Q1+Q2+Q3+Q4)(W1+W2+W3)
W4=(5960+55852980+3645)(2200+82501100)
W4=2860 J
