Two electroconductor pistons of cross section $S$ form a plane capacitor in a tube of an isolating material which contains air at atmospheric pressure $P_0$. How changes the distance between pistons if charges of different signs $\pm Q$ are applied to them? The system is good heat conductor and there is no friction.

where $F_p$, $F_{p0}$ and $F_e$ are forces due to enclosed air between pistons, due to atmospheric pressure and due to electric field, respectively.

$$P = P_0 + \frac{F_e}{S}\quad(1)$$
The electric force $F_e$ is defined from the electric field generated by a charged plate that is $E = \frac{\sigma}{2\varepsilon_0}=\frac{Q}{2\varepsilon_0 S}$, so

Taking account that the system is good heat conductor, we can suppose that thermal equilibrium is instantaneously established or that the container acts as a thermos, keeping the temperature unchanged.Then, applying Boyle-Mariotte law
