An ideal gas is compressed from a volume of V, = 5.50 L to a volume of V, = 3.00 L while in thermal contact with a heat reservoir at T = 295 K as in the figure below. During the compression process, the piston moves down a distance of d = 0.125 m under the action of an average external force of F = 10.0 kN. A cross section of a cylinder whose base rests on a surface labeled T. A disk representing a movable piston is shown in two locations. On the upper location is an arrow labeled F that points downward. The vertical distance between the two piston locations is d. (a) Find the work done on the gas. kJ (b) Find the change in internal energy of the gas. kJ (c) Find the thermal energy exchanged between the gas and the reservoir. kJ (d) If the gas is thermally insulated so no thermal energy could be exchanged, what would happen to the temperature of the gas during the compression? O The temperature would increase. O The temperature would remain constant. O The temperature would decrease.
