1.	Derive an expansions for the work done in one cycle during adiabatic expansion.
Answer» <P> Solution :Consider one MOLE of an ideal gas enclosed in a cylinder with PERFECTLY non conducting piston. `P_(1)` - initial pressure `V_(1)` - initial volume `T_(1)` - Initial temperature A - AREA of cross-section Force excited by the gas on the piston is `F=PxxA` where P - Pressure of the gas during expansion.
