    				| 1. | A cycle followed by an engine (made of one mole of an ideal gas in a cylinder with a piston) is shown in Fig. 12.11. Find heat exchanged by the engine, with the surroundings for each section of the cycle. (Cv = (3/2) R)AB : constant volumeBC : constant pressureCD : adiabaticDA : constant pressure | 
| Answer» QAB = UAB = (3/2)R(TB - TA) = (3/2) QBc = UBC + WBC = (3/2) PB(VC - VB) + PB(VC - VB) = (5/2) PB(VC - VA) QCA = 0 QDA = (5/2) PA (VA - VD) | |
