When air expands adiabatically (without gaining or losing heat), its pressure P and volume V are related by the equation PV to the power of 1.4 = C where C is a constant. Suppose that at a certain instant the volume is 480 cubic centimeters and the pressure is 75 kPa and is decreasing at a rate of 10 kPa/minute. At what rate in cubic centimeters per minute is the volume increasing at this instant? Please Write legible
A sample of monatomic ideal gas occupies 5.00 L at atmospheric pressure and 300 K (point B in the figure). It is heated at constant volume to 3.00 atm (point B). Then it is allowed to expand isothermally to 1.00 atm (point C) and at last compressed isobarically to its original state. a.) Find Q, W and ∆U for each of the processes. b.) For the whole cycle find Q, W and ∆U. For monatomic gases, use Cv=3/2 R.

Problem #2: For this problem, one mole of a diatomic ideal gas is taken around a reversible cycle by starting at pressure P, volume V, and temperature T, then in an isochoric process 1 increasing pressure to 6P, then in an isobaric process 2 increasing its volume to 21V, then another isochoric process 3 back to a pressure P, and finally in an isobaric process 4 back to P, V, T.
