Answer:
Explanation:
For this case we know the following info :
represent the initial volume
represent the final volume
We know that the pressure and volume are related with the following expression:
Where a is a constant given
And we need to calculate the work associated to this process.
We have a compression, and by definition the work is defined with the following general expression:
If we replace the expression for P we got:
If we integrate we got:
Using the fundamental theorem of calculus we have:
And replacing the values we got:
