$A$ container holds $10^{26} \text{ molecules/m}^3$ each of mass $3 \times 10^{-27} \text{ kg}$. Assume that $1/6$ of the molecules move with velocity $2000 \text{ m/s}$ directly towards one wall of the container while the remaining $5/6$ of the molecules move either away from the wall or in perpendicular direction,and all collisions of the molecules with the wall are elastic.

  • A
    Number of molecules hitting $1 \text{ m}^2$ of the wall every second is $3.33 \times 10^{28}$.
  • B
    Pressure exerted on the wall by molecules is $4 \times 10^5 \text{ Pa}$.
  • C
    Pressure exerted on the wall by molecules is $24 \times 10^5 \text{ Pa}$.
  • D
    Both $(A)$ and $(B)$.

Two rigid boxes containing different ideal gases are placed on a table. Box $A$ contains one mole of nitrogen at temperature $T_0$,while Box $B$ contains one mole of helium at temperature $(7/3)T_0$. The boxes are then put into thermal contact with each other,and heat flows between them until the gases reach a common final temperature (ignore the heat capacity of the boxes). The final temperature of the gases,$T_f$,in terms of $T_0$ is:

An ideal gas expands adiabatically $(\gamma = 1.5)$. To reduce the root-mean-square (r.m.s.) velocity of the molecules $3$ times, the gas has to be expanded by a factor of: (in $\times$)

$A$ box contains $N$ molecules of a perfect gas at temperature ${T_1}$ and pressure ${P_1}$. The number of molecules in the box is doubled while keeping the total kinetic energy of the gas the same as before. If the new pressure is ${P_2}$ and temperature is ${T_2}$,then:
