Following figure shows on adiabatic cylindrical container of volume $V_0$ divided by an adiabatic smooth piston (area of cross-section = \$ in two equal parts. An ideal gas $\left(C_P / C_V=\gamma\right)$ is at pressure $P$ and temperature $T$ in left part and gas at pressure $P$ and temperature $T$ in right part. The piston is slowly displaced and released at a position where it can stay in equilibrium. The final pressure of the two parts will be (Suppose $x=$ displacement of the piston)
