A cylinder contains a gas; in its upper part it has a plunger (whose mass is negligible) which allows gas not to escape. The area of ​​the base of such a cylinder is 0.5 m2. If the gas receives 5 kJ of heat and the internal energy of the gas decreases by 15 kJ, Determine how far the plunger travels if the gas pressure is 105 Pa.   a) 0.2 cm b) 10 m c) 0.4 cm d) 2.5 m
