$A$ certain amount of an ideal gas is contained in a closed vessel. The vessel is moving with a constant velocity $v$. The molecular mass of the gas is $M$. What is the rise in temperature of the gas when the vessel is suddenly stopped? (Given $\gamma = C_P/C_V$)

  • A
    $\frac{Mv^2}{2R(\gamma + 1)}$
  • B
    $\frac{Mv^2(\gamma - 1)}{2R}$
  • C
    $\frac{Mv^2}{2R(\gamma - 1)}$
  • D
    $\frac{Mv^2}{R(\gamma + 1)}$

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.)

The average translational kinetic energy of $N$ molecules in a gas is $E_1$. The kinetic energy of the electron $(e)$ accelerated from rest through potential difference $V$ volt is $E_2$. The temperature at which $E_1=E_2$ is possible is ( $R=$ gas constant,$N=$ number of molecules).

The number density of molecules of a gas depends on their distance $r$ from the origin as $n(r) = n_0 e^{-\alpha r^4}$. Then the total number of molecules is proportional to

If the pressure of $CO_2$ (real gas) in a container is given by $P = \frac{RT}{2V - b} - \frac{a}{4V^2}$,then the mass of the gas in the container is ...... $g$.
