In the vacuum space, a cylindrical vessel is placed vertically, closed from above by a movable piston of mass M. Inside the vessel is a monoatomic gas at a pressure of P. The inner section of the cylinder is S, and the piston is located at a height H above its bottom. The plunger was released. After a brief hesitation, it stops. At what distance from the initial position will the piston stop if the heat capacity of the gas at a constant volume is much greater than the heat capacity of the piston and cylinder? The entire system is heat-insulated.
