An ideal gas enclosed in a vertical cylindrical container supports a freely moving piston of mass . The piston and cylinder have equal cross sectional area . When the piston is in equilibrium, the volume of the gas is and its pressure is . The piston is slightly displaced from the equilibrium position and released. Assuming that the system is completely isolated from its surrounding, the piston executes a simple harmonic motion with frequency:
- A\frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{V_0 MP_0}{A^2\gamma}}
- B\frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{A^2 \gamma P_0}{MV_0}}
- C\frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{MV_0}{A^2 \gamma P_0}}
- D\frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{A\gamma P_0}{V_0 M}}
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Since the system is isolated, the process is adiabatic.For an adiabatic process, .If piston is displaced by , ..Restoring force .Acceleration .This is SHM with .Frequency .
