Paragraph :
\(P_{14-16}\) : 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 now pulled out slowly and held at a distance \(2 L\) from the top. The pressure in the cylinder between its top and the piston will then be

  1. A \(p_0\)
  2. B \(\frac{p_0}{2}\)
  3. C \(\frac{p_0}{2}+\frac{M g}{\pi R^2}\)
  4. D \(\frac{p_0}{2}-\frac{M g}{\pi R^2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(p_0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Since it is open from top, pressure will be \(p_0\). \(\therefore\) Option (a) is correct.
