Options:
  • A \( 28.57 \mathrm{~J} \)
  • B \( 56.54 \mathrm{~J} \)
  • C \( 38.92 \mathrm{~J} \)

The correct answer is: \( 28.57 \mathrm{~J} \)
dQ = n C P dT
dU = n C V dT
dW = dQ - dU = n C P - C V dT
dW dQ = n C P - C V dT n C P dT = C P C P - C V C P
dW 100 = 1 - C V C P = 1 - 1 1.4 = 0.4 1.4 = 4 14 = 2 7
dW = 100 × 2 7 = 28.57 J
