This diagram is a pressure-volume (P-V) graph illustrating the relationship between pressure \( p \) in atmospheres (atm) and volume \( V \) in cubic meters (m³) for a thermodynamic process involving a system.

### Graph Details:

- **Axes:**
  - The vertical axis represents the pressure \( p \) in atmospheres (atm), marked from 0 to 5.
  - The horizontal axis represents the volume \( V \) in cubic meters (m³), marked from 0 to 5.

- **Points and Process Path:**
  - **Point A:** Located at 1 m³ and 4 atm.
  - **Point B:** Located at 4 m³ and 1 atm.
  - **Point D:** Located at 1 m³ and 1 atm.

- **Process Description:**
  - The system starts at point A, moving vertically downward to point D while maintaining a constant volume of 1 m³ as the pressure decreases from 4 atm to 1 atm. 
  - From point D, the system moves horizontally to point B while maintaining a constant pressure of 1 atm as the volume increases from 1 m³ to 4 m³.

The red arrows indicate the direction of the process flow, demonstrating a two-step thermodynamic process involving a decrease in pressure followed by an increase in volume.
