A certain balloon maintains an internal gas pressure of P0=100 kPa until the volume reaches V0=20 m3. Beyond a volume of 20 m3, the internal pressure varies as P=P0+2kV-V02 where P is in kPa, V is in m3 and k is a constant k=1kPa/m3. Initially the balloon contains helium gas at 20°C, 100 kPa with a 15 m3 volume. The balloon is then heated until the volume becomes 25 m3 and the pressure is 150 kPa. Assume ideal gas behaviour for helium. The work done by the balloon for the entire process in kJ is
