Problem

A clockwise rectangular cycle ABCDABCD is carried out on an ideal gas as follows: • A→BA \rightarrow B: isobaric expansion at P2=3.0×105 PaP_2 = 3.0 \times 10^{5}\,\text{Pa} from V1=0.02 m3V_1 = 0.02\,\text{m}^3 to V2=0.05 m3V_2 = 0.05\,\text{m}^3. • B→CB \rightarrow C: isochoric cooling to P1=1.0×105 PaP_1 = 1.0 \times 10^{5}\,\text{Pa}. • C→DC \rightarrow D: isobaric compression at P1P_1 back to V1V_1. • D→AD \rightarrow A: isochoric heating back to P2P_2. Find the net heat absorbed in one complete cycle. (a) −6.0×103 J-6.0 \times 10^{3}\,\text{J} (b) 9.0×103 J9.0 \times 10^{3}\,\text{J} (c) 6.0×103 J6.0 \times 10^{3}\,\text{J} (d) 3.0×103 J3.0 \times 10^{3}\,\text{J}
