Calculate the work of reversible, isothermal expansion of a perfect gas. Suppose that the expansion is reversible but not isothermal and that the temperature decreases as the expansion proceeds. (a) Find an expression for the work whenT=Ti; - c(V-Vi), withca positive constant. (b) Is the work greater or smaller than for isothermal expansion?
