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?
