A boy sitting at the rear end of a railway compartment of a train, running at a constant acceleration on horizontal rails throws towards the fore end of the compartment with a muzzle velocity of 20m/sec at an angle 37^(@) above the horizontal, when the train is running at a speed of 10 m/sec. If the same boy catches the ball without moving from his seat and at the same height of projection,find the speed of the train at the instant of his catching the ball.

A container has a tight fitting movable piston which can slide without friction. The compartment containing spring has vacuum and to the left of the piston there is diatomic gas. If vacuum is created in the right compartment also the piston touches the right wall and the spring is relaxed. Find the heat capacity of the system neglecting the heat capacities of the material of spring, container and the piston. Express your answer in terms of P_(0), V_(0) and T_(0) .
