Most Important Selected Qs for JEE AdvancedPhysicsKinetic Theory of Gases
A container holds 10²⁶ molecules / m ^3 , each of mass 3 10⁻²⁷ ~kg . Assume that 1 / 6 of the molecules move with velocity 2000 ~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
Options
- ANumber of molecules hitting 1 ~m ^2 of the wall every second is 3.33 10²⁸ .
- BNumber of molecules hitting 1 ~m ^2 of the wall every second is 2 10²⁹ .
- CPressure exerted on the wall by molecules is 24 10^5 ~Pa .
- DPressure exerted on the wall by molecules is 4 10^5 ~Pa .
Correct answer
D. Pressure exerted on the wall by molecules is 4 10^5 ~Pa .
