Consider the cyclic process shown on the right and complete the following 

Consider the cyclic process shown on the right and complete the following questions. The values in the figure apply to all sub-questions. Units are in kJ. You don't need to lay out knowns and finds for this question. If any models or assumptions apply, they only need to be listed once at the beginning. Q = 0 kJ AE = -250 kJ W = +200 kJ 2 W=-500 kJ 4 3. AE = 120 kJ Q=-180 kJ Q = +30 kJ a) (15 pts) Based on the given information in the figure, complete the table entries, each in kJ. Process Q W 1 2 -250 200 2-3 30 -500 3-4 120 4 1 -180 0 b) (5 pts) Calculate the total work, W. Does the cycle generate or consume work? c) (5 pts) If the purpose of the cycle is to deliver heat to the surrounding, indicate the type of thermodynamic cycle (choose among power cycle, refrigeration, and heat pump) and evaluate its performance using the corresponding performance metrics.
