Question:

A cylinder containing a gas is fitted with a piston as illustrated above. Assume that there is no frictional force at the piston–cylinder-wall interface. The mass of the piston is 200 kg. The atmospheric pressure is 99 kPa, and the local acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2. The absolute pressure of the gas is 130 kPa. Determine the diameter of the piston.
