A thermally insulated vessel is divided into 2 parts by a heat-insulating pistonwhich can move in the vessel without friction. the left part of the vessel contains one mole of an ideal monoatomic gas, and the right part is empty. The piston is connected to the right wall of the vessel through a spring whose length in free state is equal to the length of vessel. Determine the heat capacity of the system, neglecting the heat capacities of the vessel, piston and spring.
