A vertical cylinder with a freely floating piston contains $$0.1$$ $$kg$$ air at $$1.2$$ bar and a small electrical resistor. The resistor is wired to an external $$12$$ Volt battery. When a current of $$1.5$$ amps is passed through the resistor for $$90$$ $$secs,$$ the piston sweeps a volume of $$0.01$$ $${m^3}.$$ Assume $$(i)$$ piston and the cylinder are insulated and $$(ii)$$ air behaves as a ideal gas with $${C_v} = 700\,\,J/kg\,K.$$
Find the rise in temperature of air.
