A student is asked to sketch a pV diagram for a gas that goes

through a cycle consisting of (a) an isobaric expansion, (b) a

constant-volume reduction in temperature, and (c) an isothermal

process that returns the gas to its initial state. The student draws

the diagram shown in FIGURE Q18.12. What, if anything, is wrong

with the student鈥檚 diagram?

A surveyor has a steel measuring tape that is calibrated to be 100.000 m long (i.e., accurate to1mm) at 20C. If she measures the distance between two stakes to be 65.175 m on a 3Cday, does she need to add or subtract a correction factor to get the true distance? How large, in mm, is the correction factor?
