A gas in a vessel is at the pressure `P_(0)`. If the masses of all the molecules be made half and their speeds be made double, then find the resultant pressure.

A

`4 P_(0)`

B

`2 P_(0)`

C

`P_(0)`

D

`P_(0)//2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`P'=1/3 ((m/2)n)/(V) (2C)^(2)=2P_(0)`.
