Two rigid boxes containing different ideal gases are placed on a table. Box $A$ contains one mole of nitrogen at temperature $T_0$,while Box $B$ contains one mole of helium at temperature $(7/3)T_0$. The boxes are then put into thermal contact with each other,and heat flows between them until the gases reach a common final temperature (ignore the heat capacity of the boxes). The final temperature of the gases,$T_f$,in terms of $T_0$ is:

  • A
    $T_f = \frac{5}{2}T_0$
  • B
    $T_f = \frac{3}{7}T_0$
  • C
    $T_f = \frac{7}{3}T_0$
  • D
    $T_f = \frac{3}{2}T_0$

An ideal gas $(\gamma = 1.5)$ is expanded adiabatically. How many times must the gas be expanded to reduce the root mean square velocity of the molecules $2.0$ times?

The cross-sectional area of a piston is $8 \times 10^{-3} \, m^2$. The gas has a temperature of $300 \, K$,a pressure of $1.0 \times 10^5 \, Pa$,and a volume of $2.4 \times 10^{-3} \, m^3$. When the gas is heated by a heater,the piston moves by $0.1 \, m$. If the spring constant is $8000 \, N/m$,find the final temperature in $K$.

Three vessels of equal capacity have gases at the same temperature and pressure. The first vessel contains neon (monatomic),the second contains chlorine (diatomic),and the third contains uranium hexafluoride (polyatomic). Do the vessels contain equal number of respective molecules? Is the root mean square speed of molecules the same in the three cases? If not,in which case is $v_{rms}$ the largest?
