A sample of an ideal gas can be taken through the two cycles shown in the graphs of pressure Pas a function of volume V. In each cycle the gas starts and ends in state A. The gas is contained in a cylindrical container with a movable piston. Rank the temperature T of the gas for each labeled state in cycle X. Clearly indicate the order of ranking and if any states have the same temperature. Justify your ranking using information from the graph.
