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)`.

The pressure of a gas contained in a cylinder with a movable piston is 300 Pa. The area of the piston is 0.5 m2. Calculate the force that is exerted on the piston.

A gas is filled in the cylinder shown in fig. The two pistons are joined by a string. If the gas is heated, the right piston will

A cylindrical container is divided into three parts by two tight fitting pistons. The pistons are connected by a spring. The region between the pistons is vacuum and the other two parts have same number of moles of an ideal gas. Initially, both the gas chambers are at temperature T_(0) and the spring is compressed by 1 m. Length of both gas chambers is 1 m in this position. Now the temperature of the left and right chambers are raised to (4T_(0))/(3) and (5T_(0))/(3) respectively. Find the final compression in the spring in equilibrium. Assume that the pistons slide without friction

A horizontal cylinder has two sections of unequal cross- sections, in which two pistons can move freely. The piston are joined by a string. Some gas is trapped between the pistons. If this gas is heated, the pistons will

An object suspended from a sensitive spring balance is placed inside a closed container. The other end of the container is closed by means of an air tight piston. Will there by any change in the spring balance reading when the piston is moved the inward and outward direction ? Why ?

A uniform tube with a piston in the middle and containing a gas at 0°C is heated to 100°C at one side. If the piston moves 5cm, find the length of the tube containing the gas at 100°C.
