KillGorack / Physics 2010 / A cylinder containing an ideal gas has a volume of 2.0 m3 and a pressure of 1.0*10^5 Pa at a temperature of 300 K. The cylinder is placed against a metal block that is maintained at 900 K and the gas expands as the pressure remains constant until the temperature of the gas reaches 900 K. The change in internal energy of the gas is +6.0*10^5 J. How much heat did the gas absorb?

The following physics responses are provided by a student and, as such, should be considered in that context. While every effort is made for accuracy, absolute correctness cannot be fully guaranteed.

Question A cylinder containing an ideal gas has a volume of 2.0 m3 and a pressure of 1.010^5 Pa at a temperature of 300 K. The cylinder is placed against a metal block that is maintained at 900 K and the gas expands as the pressure remains constant until the temperature of the gas reaches 900 K. The change in internal energy of the gas is +6.010^5 J. How much heat did the gas absorb?
Answer 10*10^5 J
