उत्तर
We know from kinetic theory of gases that the average translational energy per molecule is \[\frac{3}{2}kT\].
Now,
Eavg= 0.040 eV = \[0.040 \times 1 . 6 \times {10}^{- 19} = 6 . 4 \times {10}^{- 21} J\]
\[6 . 40 \times {10}^{- 21} = \frac{3}{2} \times 1 . 38 \times {10}^{- 23} \times T\]
\[ \Rightarrow T = \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{6 . 40 \times {10}^{- 21}}{1 . 38 \times {10}^{- 23}} = 309 . 2 \text { K }\]

An ideal gas is trapped between a mercury column and the closed-end of a narrow vertical tube of uniform base containing the column. The upper end of the tube is open to the atmosphere. The atmospheric pressure equals 76 cm of mercury. The lengths of the mercury column and the trapped air column are 20 cm and 43 cm respectively. What will be the length of the air column when the tube is tilted slowly in a vertical plane through an angle of 60°? Assume the temperature to remain constant.
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)`.
