Volume Definition and 1000 Threads

If I have a closed cylinder with a fixed air volume inside and a piston on the open end I need to calculate how much the piston will move as the temperature changes through a range of 100 degrees F? Air volume vs temperature?

Generally sound waves are depicted as simple sine waves, where volume is related to amplitude, and there is periodic motion. Realistically sound waves aren’t as simple. I attached a picture of a dissipating sound wave. I would appreciate if you guys could answer a couple questions I have about...

I know this is so vague as to be unanswerable - at least no answer better than I might come up with through a bit of experimentation - but it's late and I'm lazy. After having my new Smart TV with soundbar for several months now, it has spontaneously started doing something different. The new...

Say we have 2 cylinders with the same volume capacities, but different radii, and a plunger to 'squeeze' the contents. We apply the same force to each plunger. Will the cylinder with the larger radii lose volume faster? Or will they be equal?
