As shown , a piston chamber pf cross section area A is filled with ideal gas. A sealed piston of mass m is right at the middle height of the cylinder at equilibrium. The friction force between the chamber wall and the piston can be ignored . The mass of the rest of the chamber is M .The atmosphere pressure is P_(0) . Now slowly pull the piston upwards , find the maximum value of M such that the chamber can be lifted off the ground. The temperature remains unchanged.

A buoy is held inside water contained in a vessel by tying it with a thread to the base of the vessel. Name the three forces that keep the buoy in equilibrium and state the direction in which each force acts.

Figure shows a container filled with a liquid of density rho . Four points A, B, C and D lie on the vertices of a vertical square. Points A and C lie on a vertical line and points B and D lies on a horizontal line. Choose the correct statement(s) about the pressure at the four points.

A cylinder fitted with movable piston contains liquid water in equilibrium with water vapour at 25°C. Which operation would result in a increase in the equilibrium vapour pressure.

Initial volume of H_(2) gas saturated with water vapour is confined under a piston in a container is 10 litres as shown in the given figure. the container also contains some liquid water. The total pressure over liquid water is 80cm of Hg . If now the piston is removed such that volume of container is doubled, then final total pressure over liqid water in the container is P . The vapour pressure of water is 20cm of Hg and volume of liquid is negligible. Calculate P//10 .........

A long cylindrical tank of cross-sectional area 0.5m^(2) is filled with water. It has a small hole at a height 50cm from the bottom. A movable piston of cross-sectional area almost equal to 0.5m^(2) is fitted on the top of the tank such that it can slide in the tank freely. A load of 20 kg is applied on the top of the water by piston, as shown in the figure. Calculate the speed of the water jet with which it hits the surface when piston is 1m above the bottom. (Ignore the mass of the piston)

An ideal gas enclosed in a 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 position and released. Assuming that the system is completely isolated from its surrounding, the piston executes a simple harmonic motion with frequency

Suppose there are N molecules each of mass m, of an ideal gas in a container. The x component of velocity of a molecule is denoted by u_(x) . The gas is enclosed using a horizontal piston of area A as shown. If the piston is moved so as to reduce the volume of gas by half, keeping the temperature of gas constant , we know from the gas law that the pressure will be doubled. On microscopic level the increase in pressure on the piston is because

The opening near the bottom of the vessel shown in the figure has an area A . A disc is held against the opening keep the liquid from running out. Let F_(1) be the net forces on the disc applied by liquid and air in this case. Now the disc is moved away from the opening a short distance. The liquid comes out and strikes the disc in elastically. Let F_(2) be the force exerted by the liquid in this condition. The F_(1)//F_(2) is
