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 `P_(0)` and `T_(0)`. The atmospheric pressure is also `P_(0)`. At a later time, tension in the string is `(3)/(8) P_(0)A` where `A` is the cross-sectional area of the cylinder. At this time, the temperature of the gas has become
