a. W = 0 J
b. W = - 308.028 J

Given
Nitrogen gas expands in volume from 1.6 L to 5.4 L
Required
The work done
Solution
Isothermal :
W = -P . ΔV
Input the value :
a. At a vacuum, P = 0
So W = 0
b. At pressure = 0.8 atm
W = - 0.8 x ( 5.4 - 1.6)
W = -3.04 L.atm ( 1 L.atm = 101.325 J)
W = - 3.04 x 101.325
W = - 308.028 J
The electric field, or any field such as magnetic field or gravitational field, is the strongest the closer we get to the source of the field. The concentration of field lines also increases closer to the object; these field lines are seen to be coming out of a positive charge.
Therefore, the strongest electric field is at the point where the concentration of electric field lines is the highest.
Line 1: straight horizontal line
Line 2: straight line at a slope
Line 3: exponential growth curve
Line 4: the topmost curve (the one that initially increases but then starts levels out)
