Answer:

work will be positive when it is under polytropic expansion process

Explanation:

It states a polytropic  process with n equal to 1.67. there is a polytropic expansion that mean work is positive and if it was polytropic compression then it would   be negative

[tex]PV^n = const[/tex]

[tex]P_1V_1 = P_2V_2[/tex]

Also work during the process of polytropic is given as

[tex]W_{1-2} =\frac{P_1V_1 -P_2V_2}{n-1}[/tex]

the work will be positive when it is under the polytropic expansion process
