 Find the work obtained from this cycle, and all intermediate properties

Find the work obtained from this cycle, and all intermediate properties leading to this answer

An ideal gas, CP=(7/2)R and CV=(5/2)R, undergoes a Carnot cycle consisting of the following mechanically reversible steps. (1-2) An isothermal compression from p1=2 bar, V1=30m3,T1=20C, to p2=4 bar, V2,T2=T1 (2-3) An adiabatic compression from p2,V2,T2=T1=20C, to T3=500C,p3,V3 (3-4) An isothermal expansion from p3,V3,T3=500C, to p4,V4,T4=T3 (4-1) An adiabatic expansion from p4,V4,T4 to p1,V1,T1
