    Potential energy of a cylinder inside a tube filled with compressed air

    Let the cross sectional area of the tube be given by A and the position of the cylinder by s, and assume that the gas is ideal so that the pressure times the volume (Ω) is a constant. i.e. pΩ = constant. Show that the potential energy of this compressed gas is given by V =...
