Isobaric thermodynamics processes - problems and solutions

1. PV diagram below shows an ideal gas undergoes an isobaric process. Calculate the work is done
by the gas in the process AB.
Known :
Pressure (P) = 5 x 105 N/m2
Initial volume (V1) = 2 m3
Final volume (V2) = 6 m3
Wanted : Work (W)
Solution :
W = P (V2 – V1)
W = (5 x 105)(6 - 2) = (5 x 105) (4)
W = 20 x 105 = 2 x 106 Joule

2. What is difference of the work is done by the gas in process AB and process CD...
Wanted : Difference of the work is done by the
gas in process AB and CD.
Solution :

Known :
Isobaric process AB :
Pressure (P) = 6 atm = 6 x 105 N/m2
Initial volume (V1) = 1 liter = 1 dm3 = 1 x 10-3 m3
Final volume (V2) = 3 liters = 3 dm3 = 3 x 10-3 m3
Isobaric process CD :
Pressure (P) = 4 atm = 4 x 105 N/m2
Initial volume (V1) = 2 liters = 2 dm3 = 2 x 10-3 m3
Final volume (V2) = 5 liters = 5 dm3 = 5 x 10-3 m3
