1. Certain amount of an ideal gas are contained in a closed vessel. The vessel is moving with a constant velocity v . The molecular mass of gas is M . The rise in temperature of the gas when the vessel is suddenly stopped is 
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
If m is the total mass of the gas then its kinetic energy 
When the vessel is suddenly stopped then total kinetic energy will increase the temperature of the gas (because process will be adiabatic) i.e. 
[As
