(b)

To determine

The volume of the air-fuel mixture at point a in the cycle.

(c)

To determine

The values of pressure, volume and temperature at the points b, c, d of the cycle and to show the numerical values of $p$, $V$ and $T$ for the four points in the $pV$ diagram.

The values of pressure, volume and temperature at the points b, c, d of the cycle.

(d)

To determine

The comparison between the efficiency of the Otto engine and a Carnot engine working between the same minimum and maximum temperatures.
