5.49 Air in a piston/cylinder goes through a Carnot cycle with the P-v diagram shown in Fig. 5.21. The high and low temperatures are 600 K and 300 K, respectively. The heat added at the high temperature is 250 kJ/kg, and the lowest pressure in the cycle is 75 kPa. Find the specific volume and pressure after heat rejection and the net work per unit mass.
