A cylinder is fitted with a piston, beneath which is a spring,
as in the drawing. The cylinder is open to the air at the top.
Friction is absent. The spring constant of the spring is 4600 N/m.
The piston has a negligible mass and a radius of 0.020 m.
(a) When the air beneath the piston is completely
pumped out, how much does the atmospheric pressure cause the spring
to compress? (b) How much work does the
atmospheric pressure do in compressing the spring?

Your answer is partially correct. Try again. A cylinder is fitted with a piston, beneath which is a spring, as in the drawing. The cylinder is open to the air at the top. Friction is absent. The spring constant of the spring is 3400 N/m. The piston has a negligible mass and a radius of 0.019 m. (a) When the air beneath the piston...
A cylinder is fitted with a piston, beneath which is a spring constant k=3600 N/m. The cylinder is open in the top, and friction is absent. When the air beneath the piston is removed, how far does the piston compress due to atmospheric pressure.
Air contained within a vertical piston-cylinder assembly is shown in Figure 1. On its top, the 10-kg piston is attached to a spring and exposed to an atmospheric pressure of 1 bar. Initially, the bottom of the piston is at x = 0, and the spring exerts a negligible force on the piston. The valve is opened and air enters the cylinder from the supply line, causing the volume of the air within the cylinder...
Question 1 Air is contained in a vertical piston-cylinder assembly fitted with an electrical heater. The atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa and piston has a mass of 50 kg and a face area of 0.1 m . Electric current passes through the heater, and the volume of air slowly increases by 0.045 m. The mass of the air is 0.3 kg and its specific internal energy increases by 42.2 kJ/kg. Assume the assembly (including the piston) is insulated and neglect...
Question Two (10 Marks] Air is contained in vertical piston-cylinder assembly fitted with an electrical resistor. The atmosphere exerts a pressure of 1 bar on the top of the piston, which has a mass of 45 kg and a face area of 0.09 m². Electric current passes through the resistor, and the volume of the air slowly increases by 0.45 m while its pressure remains constant. The mass of the air is 0.27 kg. and its specific internal energy increases...
