A box contains `N` molecules of a perfect gas at temperature `T_(1)` and temperature `P_(1)`. The number of molecule in the box is double keeping the total kinetic energy of the gas same as before. If the new pressure is `P_(2)` and temperature `T_(2), then

A

`P_(2) = P_(1), T_(2) = T_(1)`

B

`P_(2) = P_(1), T_(2) = (T_(1))/(2)`

C

`P_(2) = 2P_(1), T_(2) = T_(1)`

D

`P_(2) = 2P_(1), T_(2) = (T_(1))/(2)`

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the relationship between the initial and final states of the gas in terms of the number of molecules, pressure, and temperature. ### Step 1: Understanding the Initial and Final States Initially, we have: - Number of molecules, \( N_1 = N \) - Temperature, \( T_1 \) - Pressure, \( P_1 \) Finally, the number of molecules is doubled: - Number of molecules, \( N_2 = 2N \) - Temperature, \( T_2 \) - Pressure, \( P_2 \) ### Step 2: Kinetic Energy Relation The total kinetic energy of a gas is given by the formula: \[ E = \frac{3}{2} N k T \] where \( k \) is the Boltzmann constant. For the initial state: \[ E_1 = \frac{3}{2} N k T_1 \] For the final state: \[ E_2 = \frac{3}{2} (2N) k T_2 \] According to the problem, the total kinetic energy remains the same: \[ E_1 = E_2 \] Thus, we have: \[ \frac{3}{2} N k T_1 = \frac{3}{2} (2N) k T_2 \] ### Step 3: Simplifying the Kinetic Energy Equation We can cancel out common terms from both sides: \[ N k T_1 = 2N k T_2 \] Dividing both sides by \( N k \) (assuming \( N \neq 0 \) and \( k \neq 0 \)): \[ T_1 = 2 T_2 \] ### Step 4: Relating Pressure and Temperature Using the ideal gas law, we have: \[ PV = nRT \] In terms of molecules, this can be expressed as: \[ PV = N k T \] For the initial state: \[ P_1 V = N k T_1 \] For the final state: \[ P_2 V = (2N) k T_2 \] ### Step 5: Setting Up the Equation Since the volume \( V \) is constant, we can set the two equations equal to each other: \[ P_1 V = N k T_1 \quad \text{and} \quad P_2 V = (2N) k T_2 \] This gives us: \[ P_1 = \frac{N k T_1}{V} \] \[ P_2 = \frac{(2N) k T_2}{V} \] ### Step 6: Relating Pressures From the equations, we can relate \( P_1 \) and \( P_2 \): \[ P_1 = \frac{N k T_1}{V} \quad \text{and} \quad P_2 = \frac{(2N) k T_2}{V} \] Substituting \( T_1 = 2 T_2 \) into the equation for \( P_2 \): \[ P_2 = \frac{(2N) k (T_1/2)}{V} \] \[ P_2 = \frac{N k T_1}{V} = P_1 \] ### Conclusion Thus, we find that: \[ P_1 = P_2 \] ### Final Answer The relationship between the pressures and temperatures is: \[ P_1 = P_2 \quad \text{and} \quad T_1 = 2 T_2 \]

To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the relationship between the initial and final states of the gas in terms of the number of molecules, pressure, and temperature. ### Step 1: Understanding the Initial and Final States Initially, we have: - Number of molecules, \( N_1 = N \) - Temperature, \( T_1 \) - Pressure, \( P_1 \) ...
