In a rarefied space, a cylindrical container remains vertically, covered at the top by a movable piston of mass $M$. Inside the closed volume, there is a monoatomic gas at temperature $T$ and pressure $P$. The interior cross-section of the cylinder is $S$, the height of volume where gas lies is $H$. The piston is set free and is moved. What maximum speed will develope the piston, if gas is compressed by the piston a) isothermally and b) adiabatically? The acceleration due to gravity is $g$.
