\(P_{14-16}\) : Paragraph for Questions Nos. 14 to 16 A fixed thermally conducting cylinder has a radius \(R\) and height \(L_0\). The cylinder is open at its bottom and has a small hole at its top. A piston of mass \(M\) is held at a distance \(L\) from the top surface as shown in the figure. The atmospheric pressure is \(p_0\).
Question :
The piston is taken completely out of the cylinder. The hole at the top is sealed. A water tank is brought below the cylinder and put in a position so that the water surface in the tank is at the same level as the top of the cylinder as shown in the figure. The density of the water is \(\rho\). In equilibrium, the height \(H\) of the water column in the cylinder satisfies

- Paragraph:
When a particle is restricted to move along \(x\)-axis between \(x=0\) and \(x=a\), where \(a\) is of nanometer dimension, its energy can take only certain specific values. The allowed energies of the particle moving in such a restricted region, correspond to the formation of standing waves with nodes at its ends \(x=0\) and \(x=a\). The wavelength of this standing wave is related to the liner momentum \(p\) of the particle according to the de Broglie relation. The energy of the particle of mass \(m\) is related to its linear momentum as \(E=\frac{p^2}{2 m}\). Thus, the energy of the particle can be denoted by a quantum number \(n\) taking values \(1,2,3, \ldots(n=1\), called the ground state) corresponding to the number of loops in the standing wave.
Use the model described above to answer the following three questions for a particle moving in the line \(x=0\) to \(x=a\) [Take \(h=6.6 \times 10^{-34} \mathrm{Js}\) and \(e=1.6 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{C}\) ]
