I have three different homework questions I cannot seem to
get
My hw is due at 12 so if anyone can help that would be helpful
Thank you

Four moles of a monatomic ideal gas are taken through a three-process thermodynamic cycle. The gas initially has a pressure of 8.00 atm with a temperature of 600 K (point A). The gas it then expanded isothermally to point B where the volume is 48.0 L. The gas is compressed via an isobarically process (point C). The gas is then expanded adiabatically back to its initial state. For all calculations using the ideal gas law assume that R = 0.08 (L atm) / (mol K). For any calculations of work, heat, internal energy, or entropy use R = 8.0 J / (mol K).
a. Compute all unknown pressures, temperatures, and volumes and organize them into a table.
b. Find the work done going from point C to point A?
c. What is the heat added to the system going from A to B?
d. What is the change in internal energy going from B to C?
e. What is the change in entropy going from A to B?

A student has a flat board and a small block. From the experiment, he wants to determine the coefficients of static and kinetic frictions.
A) Placing the block on the board, the student raises one end of the board slowly. When the board has a vertical height of 20.0 cm, the block begins sliding down the length of the board, 77.3 cm. Using this information, what is the coefficient of static friction?
B) As the block slid down the length of the board, it accelerated. If it took 1.60s for the block to slide down the full length of the board, calculate the coefficient of kinetic friction.
C) The student now lowers the angle of the board from parts A and B and pushes the block to start it moving. At what angle will the block slide down at a constant speed?
D) The student now sets the board at and angle of 30.0 degrees. As they put the block on the board, they begin pushing on the block, perpendicular to the board, to prevent it from sliding. What is the minimum force needed to do this?
