Chapter 2, Problem 2.54DP

You want to use a material that can be used for making a catalytic converter substrate. The job of this material is to be a carrier for the nanoparticles of metals (such as platinum and palladium), which are the actual catalysts. The main considerations are that this catalyst-support material must be able to withstand the constant, cyclic heating and cooling to which it will be exposed. (Note: The gases from automobile exhaust reach temperatures up to 500°C, and the material will get heated up to high temperatures and then cool down when the car is not being used.) What kinds of materials can be used for this application?

An ideal gas, occupying a volume of 0.02 m3 , has a temperature of 25 0C and is at 1.2 bar. The gas is compressed reversibly and adiabatically to a final pressure of 8 bar. Assuming the gas has an adiabatic index of γ = 1.4, calculate (a) the final temperature, (b) the final volume, (c) the work performed during the compression and (d) the heat transferred.
attached is a past paper question in which we werent given the solution. a solution with clear steps and justification would be massively appreciated thankyou.
in this scenario, when it comes to matrix iterations it states this system is assumed out of phase. why is this?
