Question

The air tight and smooth pistons of a cylindrical vessel are connected with a string, as shown. Initially, pressure and temperature of the gas are P0 and T0. The atmospheric pressure is also P0. At a later time. tension in the string is 38P0A where A is the crosssectional are of the cylinder. At this time, the temperature of the gas has become:

Moderate
Solution

 

T+P0A=PA

             T=PP0A=38P0A (given) 

P=38P0+P0=118P0

Now volume is constant by string

So, P  T

Initial temperature is T0.
