If a hole is punctured in a tire, the gas inside will gradually leak out of it. Let's assume the following : the area of the hole is A, the tire volume is V, and the time it takes for most of the air to leak out of the tire be t. This time can be expressed in terms of the ratio A//V , the temperature T. the Universal gas constant R, and the mass of the gas molecules inside the tire, m. Under these assumptions, we can use dimensional analysis to find an estimate for t. Assuming this estimate to be correct, if the mass of air within a tyre is increased by 70% , the absolute tyre temperature increased by 20% , while the area of the punctured hole is doubled (but still small) then the time in which a tyre will go flat will

A: Stoke's formula for viscous drag is not really valid for oil -drops of extremely minute sizes. R: Stoke's formula is valid for motion through a homogeneous continuous medium and the size of the drop should be much larger than the intermolecular separation in the medium for this assumption to be valid.

According to Hardy-Weinberg principle, allele and genotype frequencies in a population will remain constant from generation to generation in the absence of other evolutionary influences. It makes several assumptions which were given below. i. Random Mating ii. Sexual Reproduction iii. Non-overlapping Generations iv. Occurrence of Natural Selection v. Small size of population. Identify two assumptions which do not meet for a population to reach Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium?

Cloud formation condition Consider a simplified model of cloub formation. Hot air in contact with the earth's surface contains water vapor. This air rises convectively till the water vapor content reaches its situation pressure. When this happens, the water vpor starts condensing and droplets are formed. We shall estimate the estimate the height a which this happens.We assume that the atmosphere consists of the diatomic gases oxygen and nitrogen in the mass proportion 21:79 respectively. We further assume that the atmosphere is an ideal gas, g the acceleration due to gravity is constant and air processes are adiabatic. Under these assumptions one can show that the pressure is given by p = p_(0) ((T_(0)-T_(z))/(T_(0)))^(alpha) Here p_(0) and T_(0) is the pressure and temperature respectively at seal level (z = 0),T is the lapse rate (magnitude of the change in temperature T with height z abive the earth's surface, i.e. T gt 0) .

Using the kinetic theory derive an expression for the pressure exerted by an ideal gas, stating clearly the assumption which you make.

S_(1) : "All collisions between the molecules of the gas and walls of container are elastic". This assumption has validity only when temperature of both, the gas and the walls of the container, are same S_(2) : If DeltaV=0 in a process then work done by the gas must be zero. (T/F) S_(3) : Internal energy of one kilogram of Helium is same as that of one kilogram of Argon at the same temperature.

A light beam of wavelength 400 nm is incident on a metal of work- function 2.2 eV . A particular electron absorbs a photon and makes 2 collisions before coming out of the metal (a) Assuming that 10% of existing energy is lost to the metal in each collision find the final kinetic energy of this electron as it comes out of the metal. (b) Under the same assumptions find the maximum number of collisions, the electron should suffer before it becomes unable to come out of the metal.

It is said that the assumptions of kinetic theory are good for gases having low densities. Suppose a container is evacuated so that only one molecule is left in it. Which of the assumptions of kinetic theory will not be valid for such a situation? Can we assign a temperature to this gas?
