An ideal gas undergoes the cyclic process $abca$ as shown in the given $P-V$ diagram. It rejects $50 \,J$ of heat during $ab$ and absorbs $80 \,J$ of heat during $ca$. During $bc$, there is no transfer of heat and $40 \,J$ of work is done by the gas. What should be the area of the closed curve $abca$ (in $\,J$)?
