Thirty-six grams of air in a piston–cylinder assembly undergo a Stirling cycle with a compression ratio of 7.5. At the beginning of the isothermal compression, the pressure and volume are 1 bar and 0.03 m3, respectively. The temperature during the isothermal expansion is 1200 K. Assuming the ideal gas model and ignoring kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the net work, in kJ.
