    $\frac{Mv^2}{2R}$
  • B
    $\frac{Mv^2}{3R}$
  • C

$A$ 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:

When the temperature of an ideal gas is increased by $600 \ K$,the velocity of sound in the gas becomes $\sqrt{3}$ times the initial velocity in it. The initial temperature of the gas is .... $^oC$

Select the $incorrect$ statement$(s)$.

Two boxes containing different ideal gases are placed on a table. Box $A$ contains $1 \text{ mole}$ of nitrogen gas at temperature $T_o$,and box $B$ contains $1 \text{ mole}$ of helium gas at temperature $(7/3) T_o$. If they are brought into thermal contact such that both gases reach a final common temperature $T_f$,what is the final temperature $T_f$ in terms of $T_o$? (Neglect the heat capacity of the boxes.)
