Problem 217EUP

A piston/cylinder contains air at 2500 R, 2200 lbf/in.2, with V1 = 1 in.3, Acyl = 1 in.2, as shown in Fig. P6.92. The piston is released, and just before the piston exits the end of the cylinder, the pressure inside is 30 lbf/in.2. If the cylinder is insulated, what is its length? How much work is done by the air inside?
