A gas expands from I to F in the figure below. The energy added to the gas by heat is 302 J when the gas goes from I to Falong the diagonal path. Three paths are plotted on a PV diagram, which has a horizontal axis labeled V(liters), and a vertical axis labeled P (atm). The green path starts at point I (2,4), extends vertically down to point B(2,1), then extends horizontally to point F (4,1). The blue path starts at point I (2,4), and extends down and to the right to end at point F (4,1).

Look at the P-V diagram below (Diagram 1). Calculate the work done by the gas for the paths A, B and C. Assume that in Diagram 1, P1 = 1 atm, P2 = 4 atm, V1 = 5 L, V2 = 15 L. a) WA = 1013 J, WB = 0, WC = -2533 J b) WA = 0.01 J, WB = 0, WC = -0.025 J c) WA = 2533 J, WB = 0, WC = -1013 J Calculate the work done by the gas for the path AB in Diagram 2. Use the data: P1 = 1 atm, P2 = 4 atm, V1 = 5 L, V2 = 20 L. (Path AB is an "isothermal" which means the temperature T is constant on this path). a) 0.012 J b) 1220 J c) 0.0278 J d) 2809 J
