To test the strength of a retainment wall designed to protect a nuclear reactor, a rocket-propelled F-4 Phantom jet aircraft was crashed head-on into a
concrete barrier at high speed in Sandia, New Mexico, on April 19, 1988. The
F-4 phantom had a mass of 19,100 kg, while the retainment wall's mass was
469,000 kg. The wall sat on a cushion of air that allowed it to move during
impact. If the wall and F-4 moved together at 8.41 m/s during the collision,
what was the speed of the F-4 Phantom upon impact?

Air is held within a frictionless piston-cylinder container, which is oriented vertically. the mass of the piston is 0.45 kg and the cross-sectional area is 0.0030 m2. initially (state 1) the pressure of the gas is sufficient to support the weight of the piston as well as the force exerted by the atmospheric pressure ( 101.32 kpa). the volume occupied by the air within the cylinder in state 1 is 1.00 liter. one end of a spring (with spring constant k = 1000 n/m) is attached to the top of the piston, while the other end of the spring is attached to a stage that can move vertically. initially the spring is undeflected and therefore exerts no force. then the stage is then moved quasistatically downward a distance of 10.0 cm, at which point the system reaches state 2. the piston-cylinder is not insulated; rather it remains in diathermal contact with the surroundings, which are at a constant temperature of 300 k. what is the change of pressure within the container?
