Physics · JEE | KINETIC THEORY
हिन्दीConsider the following statements regarding kinetic theory of gases: (A) The pressure of an ideal gas is given by \( P = \frac{1}{3} n m \overline{v^2} \). (B) The average kinetic energy of a molecule is dependent on the pressure of the gas. (C) The root mean square speed of molecules is of the order of the speed of sound in air. (D) Intermolecular forces are assumed to be negligible except during collisions. Which of the above statements are correct?
View Answer & Solution
Correct answer · Option A
(A), (C) and (D) only
Explanation
Statement (B) is incorrect because average kinetic energy depends only on temperature, not pressure. Statements (A), (C), and (D) are correct.
