Two moles of a diatomic gas are carried through the cycle ABCDA shown in the PV diagram

Question:

Two moles of a diatomic gas are carried through the cycle ABCDA shown in the PV diagram in figure. The segment AB represents an isothermal expansion, the segment BC an adiabatic expansion. The pressure and temperature at A are 5 atm and 600 K. The volume at B is twice that at A. The pressure at D is 1atm.

(a) What is the pressure at B?

(b) What is the temperature at C?

(c) Find the work done by the gas in one cycle and the thermodynamic efficiency of thiscycle.
