In the figure below a piston is free to move and will not exit the cylinder. Initially the cylinder contains 2kg of air at 1.5bar and 25°C
Heat is transferred to the air and the piston rises until it reaches the blocks, at which point the volume is twice the initial volume. More heat is added until the pressure
inside the cylinder also doubles. Determine

the work done.

the amount of heat transfer for this process.

Also show the process on a P-v diagram.
