A cylinder holding helium is closed by a piston that supports a weight of 50 kg. How much heat must be supplied to lift the weight by 0.4 m at constant pressure? Take m and neglect the external pressure and the heat capacity of the vessel. Give the answer in joules (nearest integer).

Answer:
490
Solution:

Work to lift the weight J. Helium is monoatomic, so . J.
