Question:
The piston of a vertical piston–cylinder device containing a gas has a mass of 60 kg and a cross-sectional area of 0.04 m2, as shown in Fig. P1–60. The local atmospheric pressure is 0.97 bar, and the gravitational acceleration is 9.81 m/s2.
(a) Determine the pressure inside the cylinder.
(b) If some heat is transferred to the gas and its volume is doubled, do you expect the pressure inside the cylinder to change?
