A cylinder made of perfectly non conducting material closed at both ends is divided into two equal parts by a heat proof piston. Both parts of the cylinder contain the same masses of a gas at a temperature t0 = 27° and pressure P0 = 1 atm. Now if the gas in one of the parts is slowly heated to t = 57°C while the temperature of first part is maintained at t0 the distance moved by the piston from the middle of the cylinder will be (length of the cylinder = 84 cm)
