The figure shows the plot of PV/T versus Pfor 1.00×10^–3 kg of oxygen gas at two different temperatures.

(a) What does the dotted plot signify?

(b) Which is true: T₁ > T₂ or T₁ < T₂?

(c) What is the value of PV/T where the curves meet on the y-axis?

(d) If we obtained similar plots for 1.00 ×10^–3 kg of hydrogen, would we get the same value of PV/T at the point where the curves meet on the y-axis? If not, what mass of hydrogen yields the same value of PV/T (for low pressure high temperature region of the plot)? (Molecular mass of H₂ = 2.02 u, of O₂ = 32.0 u, R = 8.31 J mo1^–1 K^–1.)

An oxygen cylinder of volume 30 litres has an initial gauge pressure of 15 atm and a temperature of 27 °C. After some oxygen is withdrawn from the cylinder, the gauge pressure drops to 11 atm and its temperature drops to 17 °C. Estimate the mass of oxygen taken out of the cylinder (R = 8.31 J mol^–1 K^–1, molecular mass of O₂ = 32 u)

Estimate the total number of air molecules (inclusive of oxygen, nitrogen, water vapour and other constituents) in a room of capacity 25.0 m³ at a temperature of 27 °C and 1 atm pressure

The transverse displacement of a string (clamped at its both ends) is given by

y(x, t) = 0.06 sin `2/3` x cos (120 πt)

where x and y are in m and t in s. The length of the string is 1.5 m and its mass is `3.0 xx 10^(-2)` kg.

Answer the following :

Determine the tension in the string.

A travelling harmonic wave on a string is described by

`y(x,t) = 7.5 sin (0.0050x + 12t + pi/4)`

(a) What are the displacement and velocity of oscillation of a point at x = 1 cm, and t =1 s? Is this velocity equal to the velocity of wave propagation?

(b) Locate the points of the string which have the same transverse displacements and velocity as the x = 1 cm point at t = 2 s, 5 s and 11 s.

One end of a long string of linear mass density 8.0 × 10^–3 kg m^–1 is connected to an electrically driven tuning fork of frequency 256 Hz. The other end passes over a pulley and is tied to a pan containing a mass of 90 kg. The pulley end absorbs all the incoming energy so that reflected waves at this end have negligible amplitude. At t = 0, the left end (fork end) of the string x = 0 has zero transverse displacement (y = 0) and is moving along positive y-direction. The amplitude of the wave is 5.0 cm. Write down the transverse displacement y as the function of x and t that describes the wave on the string.
