Answer:
The increase in the internal energy of the system is 360 Joules.
Explanation:
Given that,
Heat supplied to a system, Q = 292 J
Work done on the system by its surroundings, W = 68 J
We need to find the increase in the internal energy of the system. It can be given by first law of thermodynamics. It is given by :
[tex]dE=dQ+dW\\\\dE=292\ J+68\ J\\\\dE=360\ J[/tex]
So, the increase in the internal energy of the system is 360 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.
