उत्तर १
- At constant temperature, a gas's average kinetic energy per molecule remains constant.
- When a gas's volume is lowered at a constant temperature, the number of gas molecules colliding with the container's walls per unit time increases.
- The momentum transferred per unit time per unit area, i.e. the force exerted by the gas on the walls, increases as a result.
- As a result, the gas pressure rises.
उत्तर २
Let P - be the pressure exerted by the gas
V - be the volume of the gas
N - be the number of molecule of gas
m - be the mass of each molecule of gas.
∴ Total mass of the gas, M = Nm.
From kinetic theory of gases,
`P = (1/3) (Nm)/V barv^2`
∴ Pressure exerted by gas in an enclosed vessel is
`P = 2/3 N/V (1/2mbarv^2)`
But `1/2mbarv^2` = (Kinetic energy at constant temperature)
N is number which is also constant.
∴ `P = "Constant"/V`
∴ `P ∝ 1/V`
As a result, at constant temperature, increasing the pressure of the gas reduces its volume.

Figure shows a cylindrical tube of radius 5 cm and length 20 cm. It is closed by a tight-fitting cork. The friction coefficient between the cork and the tube is 0.20. The tube contains an ideal gas at a pressure of 1 atm and a temperature of 300 K. The tube is slowly heated and it is found that the cork pops out when the temperature reaches 600 K. Let dN denote the magnitude of the normal contact force exerted by a small length dlof the cork along the periphery (see the figure). Assuming that the temperature of the gas is uniform at any instant, calculate `(dN)/(dt)`.
