An ideal gas exists in a state with pressure $P_0$, volume $V_0$. It is isothermally expanded to $4$ times its initial volume $(V_0)$, then isobarically compressed to its original volume. Finally, the system is heated isochorically to bring it to its initial state. The amount of heat exchanged in this process is

An engineer claims to have made an engine delivering $10 \ kW$ of power with a fuel consumption of $1 \ g/s$. The calorific value of the fuel is $2 \ kcal/g$. Is the claim of the engineer valid?
