An air chamber of volume V has a neck area of cross section a into which a ball of mass m just fits and can move up and down without any friction (Fig.14.27). Show that when the ball is pressed down a little and released , it executes SHM. Obtain an expression for the time period of oscillations assuming pressure-volume variations of air to be isothermal [see Fig. 14.27].

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`T=2pisqrt((Vm)/(Ba^(2)))` where B is the bulk modulus of air. For isothermal changes B=P.

S is a piston of mass M which can slide inside a cylinder without friction. The walls of the cylinder is adiabatic and the piston is diathermic and area of cross section of cylinder is A. Length of the cylinder is 2l_0 . Initial pressure of each chamber is P_0 . Volume of the chambers are equal. Initially spring is unstretched and has spring constant k. The spring is fixed with piston and wall of the cylinder as shown in the figure. Find out its time period when piston is given small displacement.

An ideal gas enclosed in a vertical cylindrical container supports a freely moving piston of mass 'M'. The piston and the cylinder have equal cross-sectional area 'A'. When the piston is in equilibrium, the volume of the gas is V_0 and its pressure is P_0 . The piston is slightly displaced from the equilibrium and released. Assuming that the system is completely isolated from its surroundings, show that the piston executes simple harmonic motion and find the frequency of oscillations
