Air is located in a piston–cylinder device. The diameter of the cylinder is 12 cm, the mass of the piston is 5 kg, and the acceleration due to gravity is 9.80 m/s2. The local atmospheric pressure is 100.5 kPa. Determine the mass of a set of weights that needs to be added to the top of the piston so that the absolute pressure of the air in the cylinder is 250 kPa.
