Physics Question on kinetic theory
Equation of a gas in terms of pressure (P), absolute temperature, (T) and density (rf) is:
A
T1d1P1=T2d2P2
B
d1P1T1=d2P2d1
C
T2P1d2=T1P2d1
D
T1P1d1=T2P1d2
Answer
T1d1P1=T2d2P2
Explanation
Solution
Gas equation is TPV=constant=R or T1P1V1=T2P2V2 If m is the mass of a gas and d1 and d2 are its density at absolute temperature T1K and T2K, then V1=m/d1 and V2=m/d2 ∴ T1P1(d1m)=T2P2(d2m) T1d1P1=T2d2P2
