Gas Laws & Ideal Gas Equation

Relation between pressure (PP) and energy (EE) of a gas is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. Kinetic theory: P=13ρv2ˉP = \dfrac{1}{3}\rho \bar{v^2}, and KE per unit volume E=12ρv2ˉE = \dfrac{1}{2}\rho \bar{v^2}.
  2. P=23(12ρv2ˉ)=23EP = \dfrac{2}{3}\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\rho \bar{v^2}\right) = \dfrac{2}{3}E
  3. So the answer is (a) P=23EP = \frac{2}{3}E.
