A sample of gas was first compressed from V to at a constant pressure of P The sample was then cooled so that the pressure went from P to P while the volume remained constant at V Finally the sample was allowed to expand from V back to V while the pressure increased from P back to P as shown in the diagram Which of the following statements is correct pressure ON volume The area A represents the energy that is lost by the gas in this cycle O The ares A B represents the energy gained by the gas in this cycle The area A C represents the energy gained by the gas in this cycle The area 8 D represents the energy gained by the gas in this cycle There was no energy lost or gained by the gas in this cycle
