$A$ cylindrical tube of cross-sectional area $A$ has two airtight,frictionless pistons at its two ends. The pistons are tied with a straight piece of metallic wire. The tube contains a gas at atmospheric pressure $P_0$ and temperature $T_0$. If the temperature of the gas is doubled,then the tension in the wire is:

  • A
    $4 P_0 A$
  • B
    $P_0 A / 2$
  • C
    $P_0 A$
  • D
    $2 P_0 A$

One litre of Helium gas at a pressure $76 \ cm$ of $Hg$ and temperature ${27}^\circ C$ is heated until its pressure and volume are doubled. The final temperature attained by the gas is ..... $^\circ C$

$A$ hydrogen cylinder is designed to withstand an internal pressure of $100 \,atm$. At $27^{\circ} C$,hydrogen is pumped into the cylinder which exerts a pressure of $20 \,atm$. At what temperature does the danger of explosion first set in? (in $K$)

The air density at Mount Everest is less than that at the sea level. It is found by mountaineers that for one trip lasting a few hours,the extra oxygen needed by them corresponds to $30,000 \, cc$ at sea level (pressure $1 \, atm$,temperature $27^{\circ}C$). Assuming that the temperature around Mount Everest is $-73^{\circ}C$ and that the oxygen cylinder has a capacity of $5.2 \, L$,the pressure at which $O_2$ must be filled (at site) in the cylinder is .... $atm$.
