A thermal machine operates with 1.00 mol of an ideal diatomic gas according to the cycle shown in the figure. The molecules of the gas rotate, with only two degrees of freedom of rotation excited, and also vibrate. The volume at stage 1 is V₁ = 25.0 liters. (a) What is the work done by the machine in each cycle? (b) What is the thermal efficiency of the machine? (c) If operated counterclockwise will the machine work as a chiller? Consider Atmospheric pressure: pₐₜₘ = 101325 Pa
