4B.2

Postby Yuhan Sun » Wed Jan 26, 2022 6:08 pm

The internal energy of a system increased by 982 J when it absorbed 492 J of heat.
a. Was work done by or on the system?
b. How much work was done?

I think the work done on the system is 982-492 = 490J;
However, the answer is 90 * 10^2 J.
How can we get this answer?

The answer key on my end shows 4.90 x 10^2 J, which is what you got!
