16 An ideal gas is trapped between two metallic pistons A

16 An ideal gas is trapped between two metallic pistons A and B inside a thin glass tube The pistons are connected with the terminals of a variable voltage battery Relative permittivity of the gas is The pistons stay in equilibrium at separation xo between them when battery voltage is Vo a Is the equilibrium stable unstable or neutral b How will the distance x between the pistons change if battery voltage is slowly increased
