Figure shows a cylindrical tube of cross-sectional area A fitted with two frictionless pistons. The pistons are connected to each other by a metallic wire. Initially, the temperature of the gas is T0 and its pressure is p0 which equals the atmospheric pressure. (a) What is the tension in the wire? (b) What will be the tension if the temperature is increased to 2T0 ?

उत्तर

(a)
Since pressure from outside and inside the cylinder is the same, there is no net pressure acting on the pistons. So, tension will be zero.
(b)
`T_1 = T_0`
`T_2 = 2T_0`
`P_1 = P_0 = 10^5 "Pa"`
CSA = A
Let the Pistons be L distance apart .
V = AL
Applying five variable gas equation , we get
`(P_1V)/T_1 = (P_2V)/T_2`
⇒ `10^5/T_0 = P_2/(2T_0)`
⇒ `P_2 = 2×10^5 = 2P_0`
Net Force acting outside = `2P_0 - P_0 = P_0`
Force acting on a piston `F = P_0A`
By the free body diagram , we get
`F - T = 0`
`T = P_0A`

Figure shows a cylindrical tube of radius 5 cm and length 20 cm. It is closed by a tight-fitting cork. The friction coefficient between the cork and the tube is 0.20. The tube contains an ideal gas at a pressure of 1 atm and a temperature of 300 K. The tube is slowly heated and it is found that the cork pops out when the temperature reaches 600 K. Let dN denote the magnitude of the normal contact force exerted by a small length dlof the cork along the periphery (see the figure). Assuming that the temperature of the gas is uniform at any instant, calculate `(dN)/(dt)`.
