Air in a cylinder with a volume of 500 cm3 is compressed by a piston to a volume of 150 cm3.

If the initial air pressure is 5 x 104 Pa (N/m2), what is the pressure in the cylinder after compression?

(Assume that this is a slow process , and that T remains constant.)

Pa?

    .    BB guns are typically air rifles employing compressed air in a small (1 cm3) cylinder to propel a projectile.   The typical pressure inside the cylinder when the gun is ready to fire is around 1 MPa. The BBs have a mass of 5 g, and they act as the piston head as they are held by a pin (attached to the trigger). When the trigger is pulled, the pin is released and the air expands in an isothermal process...

    Problem 7-173- A piston–cylinder device contains air that undergoes a reversible thermodynamic cycle. Initially, air is at 400 kPa and 300 K with a volume of 0.3 m3. Air is first expanded isothermally to 150 kPa, then compressed adiabatically to the initial pressure, and finally compressed at the constant pressure to the initial state. Accounting for the variation of specific heats with temperature, determine the work and heat transfer for each process.
