Required information
The PV diagram shown is for a heat
engine that uses 1.030 mol of a diatomic
ideal gas as its working substance. In the
constant-temperature processes A and C,
the gas is in contact with reservoirs at
temperatures 373 K and 273 K,
respectively. In constant-volume process
B, the gas temperature decreases as heat
flows into the cold reservoir. In constant-
volume process D, the gas temperature
increases as heat flows from the hot
reservoir.
