Two pistons are in an enclosed volume with fluid in between them, such that movement in one piston affects the location of the other piston, as shown in
the image below. If an explosion occurs in the piston on the left such that it
moves 0.2 m, what is the distance that the piston on the right will move
(assuming that friction can be neglected)? (Recall that work on an object is
equal to the force on the object times the distance it is moved, and that work
is conserved.)
Cross-sectional area = 0.25 m
Cross-sectional area=0.5 m?
A. 0.2 m
B. 0.8 m
C. 0.4 m
O D. 0.1 m
