You are studying a system that has five evenly spaced energy levels. The lowest energy level (labeled "1") has an energy of 0.5 J. The remaining energy levels (labeled 2-5 in increasing energy) are evenly spaced, with 1 J energy spacing between the levels. There are three particles in the system, and any number of particles can occupy each of the energy levels. If the average energy per particle is 3.5 J, as in the four questions above, how can you increase the internal energy of the system without rearranging the particles in the system? Select one:
By doing work on the system
By adding heat to the system
By adding heat to and doing work on the system
By having the system do work on the surroundings and adding heat to the system
By doing work on the system and removing heat from the system
