A vertical piston‑cylinder arrangement has a cross‑sectional area of \(2.0\times10^{-3}\,\text{m}^{2}\). The piston is held by a spring of force constant \(k = 200\ \text{N m}^{-1}\). Initially the spring is compressed by \(0.05\ \text{m}\) and the gas beneath the piston occupies a volume of \(4.0\times10^{-4}\ \text{m}^{3}\) at a temperature of \(300\ \text{K}\). The external atmospheric pressure is \(101.3\ \text{kPa}\). The gas is heated to \(350\ \text{K}\) while the piston is free to move. Find the final compression of the spring (in metres).
