A gas expands by a volume `DeltaV` against a constant pressure P. What is the work done by the system?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of calculating the work done by a gas that expands by a volume \(\Delta V\) against a constant pressure \(P\), we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Concept of Work Done**: - Work done by a gas during expansion can be defined as the product of pressure and the change in volume. In thermodynamics, this is given by the formula: \[ W = P \Delta V ...
