Question:

A cylinder containing a gas is fitted with a piston having a diameter of 0.12 m. Assume that there is no frictional force at the piston–cylinder wall interface. The atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa and the local acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2. To produce an absolute pressure in the gas of 200 kPa, what mass (kg) of the piston is required?
