Adiabatic Expansion of Pressurized Air in a Piston-Cylinder Setup
Pressure in A: pamb + F/A, here Mass of the piston * g, together = F, and the area of cylinder A Mass of A: mA=(pA * V A ) / (RS / *TA) , same for B with pB etc. together A and B are mboth- Peter_parker

Adiabatic Expansion of Pressurized Air in a Piston-Cylinder Setup
Task: A thermally insulated pressurized air cylinder, B, was initially placed inside a closed-bottom, circular hollow cylinder A with an inner diameter of 50 cm. Then a tightly fitting, frictionless sliding piston with a mass of 20 kg was installed. Using the outlet valve, the height of the...- Peter_parker
