Question:

A gas is enclosed inside a cylinder that is fitted with a freely moving piston.

The gas is initially in equilibrium with a volume V1 and a pressure p. The gas is then cooled slowly. The piston moves into the cylinder until the volume of the gas is reduced to V2 and the pressure remains at p.

What is the work done on the gas during this cooling?
