Q#1 Drying GATE CH 2024 NAT +2 marks -0 marks

An isolated system consists of two perfectly sealed cuboidal compartments A and B separated by a movable rigid wall of cross-sectional area \(0.1 m^2\) as shown in the figure. Initially, the movable wall is held in place by latches\(L_1\) and \(L_2\)such that the volume of compartment A is \(0.1 m^3.\) Compartment A contains a monoatomic ideal gas at 5 bar and 400 K. Compartment B is perfectly evacuated and contains a massless Hookean spring of force constant \(0.3 N m^{-1}\)at its equilibrium length (stored elastic energy is zero). The latches \(L_1\) and \(L_2\) are released, the wall moves to the right by 0.2m, where it is held at the new position by latches \(L_3\) and \(L_4\). Assume all the walls and latches are massless. The final equilibrium temperature, in K, of the gas in compartment A, rounded off to 1 decimal place, is _ _ _ _ _ _
