Question

Please show work and use the right units. 

The figure below shows a reversible cycle through which 1.00 mol of a monatomic ideal gas is taken. Assume that \( p = 2p_0 \), \( V = 2V_0 \), \( p_0 = 1.36 \times 10^5 \) Pa, and \( V_0 = 0.0230 \, \text{m}^3 \).

### Diagram Explanation

The graph displays a pressure-volume (P-V) diagram representing the reversible cycle of the gas. The cycle consists of four processes forming a rectangle in the P-V plane:

- **Process \( ab \):** Isovolumetric (constant volume) where pressure increases from \( p_0 \) to \( p \).
- **Process \( bc \):** Isobaric (constant pressure) where volume increases from \( V_0 \) to \( V \).
- **Process \( cd \):** Isovolumetric where pressure decreases from \( p \) to \( p_0 \).
- **Process \( da \):** Isobaric where volume decreases from \( V \) to \( V_0 \).

The arrows on the rectangle indicate the direction of the cycle: clockwise, suggesting work is done by the system.

### Exercises

(a) **Calculate the work done during the cycle.**

- Answer field: \(\_\_\_\_\_\_ \, \text{J}\)

(b) **Calculate the energy added during stroke \( abc \).**

- Answer field: \(\_\_\_\_\_\_ \, \text{J}\)

(c) **Calculate the efficiency of the cycle.**

- Answer field: \(\_\_\_\_\_\_ \, \%\)

(d) **What is the efficiency of an ideal engine operating between the highest and lowest temperatures that occur in the cycle?** (Note whether this is greater than or less than the efficiency calculated in (c).)

- Answer field: \(\_\_\_\_\_\_ \, \%\)
