A collection of 100 non-interacting particles, each with mass 1 g, has an initial 5 J of internal energy in the form of translational kinetic energy with equal contribution from each particle. When 50 J of heat is added to this collection, it expands to a new volume and some of the added energy goes equally towards increasing the translational kinetic energy of each particle such that each is found to be moving with a speed of 20 m/s. How much of the added heat is converted to work?
Find the change in internal energy and use first law of thermodynamics to find the heat energy converted to work as shown below
