Homework Statement
I am having an issue trying to decipher this question, as I am not sure if it a lack of knowledge on my half or there is an assumption I have to make.
Homework Equations
##\epsilon=\frac{W_{total}}{Q_{in}}##
The Attempt at a Solution
My issue is calculating the heat along the path ##Q_{A \rightarrow B}## my confusion stem from that second law there is no working being done so then heat is equal to ##Q_{A \rightarrow B}=C_v\Delta T##.
Now in the question I have no information on if this a monotonic gas or diatomic ideal gas, if I have to make the assumption it is fine I can calculate the efficiency just fine, but I was just wondering if someone could take a look as I may have overlooked something.
