### Work Done by Gas During Expansion#### Problem Statement:A gas expands according to the pressure-volume graph shown in the drawing. How much work \( W \) is done by the gas in going from point A to point B? Be sure to include the correct algebraic sign.#### Graph Analysis:The provided graph is a Pressure-Volume (P-V) diagram, where:- The y-axis represents the Pressure (in \( \times 10^5 \, \text{Pa} \)).- The x-axis represents the Volume (in \( \text{m}^3 \)).The process described involves a gas expanding:- From point A (4.0 \( \times 10^5 \, \text{Pa} \), 0.30 \( \text{m}^3 \))- To point B (2.0 \( \times 10^5 \, \text{Pa} \), 0.75 \( \text{m}^3 \))The graph consists of two linear segments:1. From (4.0 \( \times 10^5 \, \text{Pa} \), 0.30 \( \text{m}^3 \)) to (2.0 \( \times 10^5 \, \text{Pa} \), 0.60 \( \text{m}^3 \))2. From (2.0 \( \times 10^5 \, \text{Pa} \), 0.60 \( \text{m}^3 \)) to (2.0 \( \times 10^5 \, \text{Pa} \), 0.75 \( \text{m}^3 \))#### Calculation:To find the work done \( W \) by the gas, we calculate the area under the P-V curve.1. **First Segment (A to midpoint):** - Pressure \( P \) changes linearly from 4.0 \( \times 10^5 \, \text{Pa} \) to 2.0 \( \times 10^5 \, \text{Pa} \). - Volume \( V \) changes from 0.30 \( \text{m}^3 \) to 0.60 \( \text{m}^3 \). Area of this trapezoid: \[ W_1
