$A$ cylindrical tube of uniform cross-sectional area $A$ is fitted with two airtight frictionless pistons. The pistons are connected to each other by a metallic wire. Initially, the pressure of the gas is $P_0$ and the temperature is $T_0$; the atmospheric pressure is also $P_0$. Now, the temperature of the gas is increased to $2T_0$. The tension in the wire will be:

  • A
    $2P_0A$
  • B
    $P_0A$
  • C
    $\frac{P_0A}{2}$
  • D
    $4P_0A$
