SOLUTION
(A) Find the work done on the gas in Figure a.
Compute the areas 41 and 42 in
Figure a. 4, is a rectangle and 42 is a
triangle.
Sum the areas (the arrows point to
Increasing volume, so the work done
on the gas is negative).
(B) Find the work done on the gas in Figure b.
Compute the areas of the two
rectangular regions.
Sum the areas (the arrows point to
decreasing volume, so the work done
on the gas is positive).
