An 8.50 kg point mass and a 14.5 kg point mass are held in place 50.0 cm apart. A particle of mass (m) is released from a point between the two masses 12.0 cm from the 8.50 kg mass along the line connecting the two fixed masses. Find the magnitude of the acceleration of the particle.

Agas initially at p1 = 1 bar and occupying a volume of 0.5 liter is compressed within a piston–cylinder assembly to a final pressure p2 = 4 bar. (a) if the relationship between pressure and volume during the compression is pv = constant, determine the volume, in liters, at a pressure of 3 bar. (b) repeat for a linear pressure–volume relationship between the same end states. reference
