Part A) This engine works  per cycle is 254.9 J.

Part B) The thermal efficiency is  23.42%

What is the thermal efficiency?

The thermal efficiency of any heat engine is represented in percentage of heat energy converted into work.

For isothermal expansion, work done is

W₁ =nRT₁ x ln(V₂/V₁)

W₁ = 0.1 x 8.314 x 800 x ln(5000/3000)

W₁ = 339.8 J =Q₁

For isochoric cooling ,

W₂ =0

Q₂ =nCvdT = 0.1 x 3R/2 x (T₂-T₁)

Q₂ = -748.3 J

For isothermal compression,

W₃ =nRT₂ ln (V₄/V₃)

W₃  = 0.1 x 8.314 x 200 x ln(3000/5000)

W₃ = -84.9J

For isochoric heating

W₄ =0

Q₄ =nCvdT = 0.1 x 3R/2 x (800-200)

Q₄  = -748.3 J

Total work done in all the process W = W₁ +W₂ +W₃ +W₄

W =254.9 J

Thus, the work done is 254.9 J

Thermal efficiency = Work done/Heat taken

η = W/ Q₁ +Q₄

η = [254.9 / 339.8 +748.3 ] x 100 %

η = 0.2342 x 100 %

η = 23.42%

Thus, the thermal efficiency is 23.42%
