Inside a cylinder having insulating walls and closed at ends is a movable piston, which divides the cylinder into two compartments. On one side of the piston is a mass $m$ of a gas and on the other side a mass $2 m$ of the same gas. What fraction of volume of the cylinder will be occupied by the larger mass of the gas when the piston is in equilibrium $?$ Consider that the movable piston is conducting so that the temperature is the same throughout
  • A$0.25$
  • B$0.33$
  • C$0.5$
  • D$0.67$
