- I am given the following information: "A 700 kg piston is initially held in place by a removable latch above a vertical cylinder. The cylinder has an area of 0.1 m^2; the volume of the gas within the cylinder initially is 0.1 m^3 at a pressure of 10 bar. The working fluid may be assumed to obey the ideal gas equation of state. The cylinder has a total volume of 0.25 m^3, and the top end is open to the surrounding atmosphere at 1 bar." (a) Assume that the frictionless piston rises in the cylinder when the latches are removed and the gas within the cylinder is always kept at the same temperature.
