A thermally insulated vessel with nitrogen gas at `27^(@)C` is moving with a velocity of `100 ms^(-1)`. If the vessel is stopped suddenly, then the percentage change in the pressure of the gas is nearly (assume entire loss in KE of the gas is given as heat to gas and `R=8.3" Jmol"^(-1)K^(-1)`)

The correct Answer is:
D

Let there are n moles of `N_(2)` gas in the cylinder. Assuming all of K, E appears in form of heat,
`n((1)/(2) Mv^(2))=(f)/(2) n R Delta T`
Here, `M=28 g =28xx10^(-3) kg, f=5`
Increment in pressure due to change of temperature is
Also, `Delta_(p) =(n R Delta T)/(V)`
`(Delta_(p))/(p)=(((n R Delta T)/(V)))/(((nRT)/(V)))=(n R Delta T)/(nRT) rArr (Delta_(p))/(p) =(n Mv^(2))/(f nRT) =(Mv^(2))/(fRT)`
So, percentage change in pressure is,
`therefore (Delta p)/(p) xx100 =(28xx10^(-3)xx100xx100)/(5xx8.3xx300)xx100=2.25%`
