Problem P. 4852. (May 2016)

P. 4852. There is a frictionlessly moveable piston in a thermally insulated vertical cylinder closed at both of its ends and of cross section \(\displaystyle A=1~{\rm dm}^2\). Two springs (which are both designed for compression and tension) are attached to the piston and to the two bases of the cylinder. The unstretched lengths of the springs are \(\displaystyle \ell_1=3~{\rm dm}\) and \(\displaystyle \ell_2=5~{\rm dm}\), whilst their spring constants are \(\displaystyle D_1=1000\) N/m and \(\displaystyle D_2=1500\) N/m. Bellow the piston there is air, the pressure of which initially is \(\displaystyle p_1=4\cdot10^4\) Pa, whilst above the piston there is vacuum. Initially the distances between the piston and the bases of the cylinder are \(\displaystyle d_1=5~{\rm dm}\) and \(\displaystyle d_2=4~{\rm dm}\).

\(\displaystyle a)\) Determine the mass of the piston.

\(\displaystyle b)\) The air inside cylinder is slowly heated. By what factor should the absolute temperature of the air be raised in order that the piston moves up 10 cm?

\(\displaystyle c)\) How much heat is added to the gas during the heating process?
