Air that initially occupies 0.140 m3 at a gauge pressure of 103.0 kPa is expanded isothermally to a pressure of 101.3 kPa and then cooled at constant pressure until it reaches its initial volume. Compute the work done by the air. (Gauge pressure is the difference between the actual pressure and atmospheric pressure.)
A pearl diver fills his lungs with 5.25 LL of air at normal atmospheric pressure and then dives to 22.1 mm, where the pressure is 3.21 atmatm. If the air in his lungs stays at body temperature, how much work is done on the air as it compresses?
Does a gas do any work when it expands adiabatically? If so, what is the source of the energy needed to do this work?
