One mole of an ideal di-atomic gas is being compressed by two external agents. First, Agent A adiabatically compresses the gas from the initial volume Vo to V₁. The gas is then left to cool to its original temperature. Afterwards, Agent B adiabatically compresses the gas further from V₁ to V₂. The initial pressure of the gas is Po. c) Calculate the work done by each of the agents. d) Determine the value of V₁ for which the total work performed by the agents is minimal. [6] [5] e) Which agent performs most of the work for the optimal value of V₁ from d)? What is its value? [5]
