        Signed _______________________ 

        By slowly pumping air into a 10 liter container, its pressure is increased 10 times atmospheric pressure.  How much work is done during this process if the displacement of the piston in the pump is 1 liter?  Assume the walls of the container and the pump are all good heat conductors and so the temperature can be taken as a constant.
 ** note: you should get a numerical value for the work.
