$A$ 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 $(B)$.

$N$ molecules each of mass $m$ of gas $A$ and $2N$ molecules each of mass $2m$ of gas $B$ are contained in the same vessel at temperature $T$. The mean square of the velocity of molecules of gas $B$ is $v^2$ and the mean square of $x$ component of the velocity of molecules of gas $A$ is $w^2$. The ratio $\frac{w^2}{v^2}$ is
