Given The final pressure of the adiabatic process,  p1=200n/m2
The initial pressure of the adiabatic process p1=100n/m2
The initial volume of the adiabatic process,  V1=4m3
The initial volume of the adiabatic process, V1=3m3
We know that for an adiabatic process 

W=pfVfpiVi1γW=200(3)(100)(4)11.4W=500J

So the work done by an adiabatic process is 500 J and negative sign represents the work done on the system.
