Question: ( 2 0 points ) An ideal gas undergoes a thermodynamic cycle consisting of the following processes: Process 1 - 2 : Isobaric expansion, P

(20 points) An ideal gas undergoes a thermodynamic cycle consisting of the following
processes:
Process 1-2: Isobaric expansion, P =140 kPa, V1=0.028 m3,|1W2|=10.5 kJ
Process 2-3: Isothermal compression, consequently U2= U3
Process 3-1: Isochoric process, U1 U3=26.4 kJ
There are no significant changes in kinetic or potential energy.
a. Draw the cycle on the P-V diagram.
b. Calculate the heat transfer for process 1-2, in kJ.
c. Calculate the net work for the cycle, in kJ
