At room temperature,the $rms$ speed of a gas is $V_1$. If the pressure of the gas is doubled at the same room temperature,the $rms$ speed becomes $V_2$. Then:

  • A
    $V_1 > V_2$
  • B
    $V_1 < V_2$
  • C
    $V_1 = V_2$
  • D
    None of these

Light gases like $H_2$ and $He$ are found in negligible amounts in the atmosphere. Why?

The molecules of a given mass of a gas have $r.m.s.$ velocity of $200 \,m s^{-1}$ at $27^o C$ and $1.0 \times 10^5 \,N m^{-2}$ pressure. When the temperature and pressure of the gas are respectively $127^o C$ and $0.05 \times 10^5 \,N m^{-2},$ the $r.m.s.$ velocity of its molecules in $m s^{-1}$ is

$A$ gas $A$ has $N$ molecules at temperature $T$ with mass $m$. Another gas $B$ has $2N$ molecules at the same temperature $T$ with mass $2m$. Both are contained in a vessel. If the $rms$ velocity of molecules of gas $B$ is $v$,and the $x$-component of the mean square velocity of molecules of gas $A$ is $w^2$,find the ratio $w^2/v^2$.
