A horizontal piston/cylinder arrangement is placed in a constant temperature bath. The piston slides in the cylinder with negligible friction, and an external force hold it in place against an initial gas pressure of 1 bar. The initial gas volume is 0.04 m^3. The external force on the piston is reduced gradually, and the gas expands isothermally as its volume triples.
(a) If the volume of the gas is related to its pressure so that the product PV^t is constant, what is the work done by the gas in moving the external force?
(b) How much would be done if the external force were suddenly reduced to half its initial value instead of being gradually reduced?

4) The work produced by a piston-cylinder device depends on the pressure inside the cylinder and the amount the piston moves, resulting in a change in volume inside the cylinder. Mathematically In order to integrate this equation, we need to understand how the pressure changes with the volume. We can model most combustion gases as air and assume that they follow the ideal gas law PV- nRT where P- pressure, kPa, volume, m n- number of...

A 19.0- L volume of an ideal gas in a cylinder with a piston is at a pressure of 3.2 atm . Enough weight is suddenly removed from the piston to lower the external pressure to 1.6 atm . The gas then expands at constant temperature until its pressure is 1.6 atm . The change in the internal energy of a system, ΔE , for an isothermal expansion of an ideal gas is 0. Use this information in your calculations...

Air contained within a vertical piston-cylinder assembly is shown in Figure 1. On its top, the 10-kg piston is attached to a spring and exposed to an atmospheric pressure of 1 bar. Initially, the bottom of the piston is at x = 0, and the spring exerts a negligible force on the piston. The valve is opened and air enters the cylinder from the supply line, causing the volume of the air within the cylinder...
