Question

A cylinder with a piston is filled with steam and its temperature is maintained by a heat source. When the piston is suddenly pushed down, so as to decrease the volume of the steam, what happens to the pressure inside? not sure Why? a the pressure increases bthe pressure decreases c the pressure remains the same d the pressure first decreases and then increase Comes from 13.3 The Ideal Gas Law
