Two cylinders A and B of equal capacity are connected to each other vis a stop cock. A contains an ideal gas at standard temperature and pressure. B is completely evacuated. The sto cock is suddenly opened. The process is:

A Gas is enclosed in a metallic container of volume Vand its initial pressure is p. It is slowly compressed to a volume V/2 and then suddenly compressed to V/4. Find the final pressure of the gas. From the initial state the gas is suddenly compressed to V/2 and then slowly compressed to V/4, what will be the final pressure now.
