The fixed non-conducting cylinder shown ...

The fixed non-conducting cylinder shown in figure has a noconducting heavy piston of mass `M` that can slide without friction. The area of piston is `S` and the cylinder is filled with an ideal gas `(lambda=1.5)` with an initial volume `V` and an initial pressure `P`. Assume that the outside pressure on the piston is zero (vaccum). (Neglect acceleration due to gravity).

The initial acceleration of piston is:

A

`(PA)/(lambdaM)`

B

`(lambdaPA)/(M)`

C

`(PA)/(M)`

D

`(PA)/(lambda-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The initial force on the piston is `PA`
`because a=(PA)/(M)`
