Question: 7 . ( 2 0 points ) Air initially at 3 0 0 K and 2 0 0 kPa , in a piston cylinder assembly

7.(20 points) Air initially at 300 K and 200 kPa , in a piston cylinder assembly undergoes the following cycle that consists of three processes.
\(1\rightarrow 2\) : Adiabatic expansion to a pressure of 100 kPa
\(2\rightarrow 3\) : Constant volume heating to 500 K
\(3\rightarrow 1\) : Constant pressure compression to the initial conditions.
a. Fix each state by determining the pressure, temperature, specific volume and specific internal energy.
b. Determine the specific work and specific heat transfer for each process.
c. Find the net specific work and the net specific heat transfer for the cycle and explain if your answer makes sense.
