A vertical piston-cylinder device contains a gas at a pressure of 105 kPa absolute. The piston has a mass of 5 kg and a diameter of 12cm. The pressure of the gas is to be increased by placing some weights on the piston. Determine the local atmospheric pressure (in mmHg) and the mass (in kgm) of the weights that will double the pressure of the gas inside the cylinder. Weights Gas
