A piston cylinder device contains 0.15 kg of air initially at 2
MPa and 350 C. First, the air expands isothermally to a pressure of
500 kPa. Then, it is compressed polytropically back to the initial
pressure (2 MPa) with a polytropic exponent of 1.2. Find the work
performed or introduced by or to the air for each process. Express
it both times in kJ.
