Solution Preview

The solution is attached below in two files. the files are identical in content, only differ in format. The first is in MS Word XP Format, while the other is in Adobe pdf format. Therefore you can choose the format that is most suitable to you.

Part A
What type of process does curve OA represent?
A) adiabatic
B) isobaric
C) isochoric
D) isothermal

Curve OA represents an isobaric process, since the pressure does not change during the process.

Part B
What type of process does curve ...
