Question:
Use $\mathrm{R}=8.3 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{mol}-\mathrm{K}$ wherever required.
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 $T_{0}$ and its pressure is $p_{0}$ 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 $2^{T_{0}}$ ?
Solution:
