Question: Oxygen at 50 lbf/in.2, 200 F is in a piston/cylinder arrangement with a volume of 4 ft3. It is now compressed in a polytropic process

Oxygen at 50 lbf/in.2, 200 F is in a piston/cylinder arrangement with a volume of 4 ft3. It is now compressed in a polytropic process with exponent, n = 1.2, to a final temperature of 400 F. Calculate the heat transfer for the process.
Continuity: m2 = m1; Energy: E2 - E1 = m (u2 - u1) = 1Q2 - 1W2
