An ideal mono-atomic gas is enclosed in a fixed horizontal adiabatic cylinder of cross sectional area A. The cylinder is fitted with an adiabtaic piston of mass m (attached to one of a spring), which can move horizontally without friction inside the cylinder . in equilibrium, the spring is in natural length and pressure and volume are P and V respectively, If the atmosphereic pressure is also P, n the piston is slightly displaced from equlibrium and released, then find the frequency of small oscillations.
