$A$ frictionless piston-cylinder based enclosure contains some amount of gas at a pressure of $400 \text{ kPa}$. Heat is transferred to the gas at constant pressure in a quasi-static process. The piston moves up slowly through a height of $10 \text{ cm}$. If the piston has a cross-sectional area of $0.3 \text{ m}^2$, the work done by the gas in this process is: (in $\text{ kJ}$)
