An ideal gas of molar mass $M$ is contained in a vertical tube of height $H$,closed at both ends. The tube is accelerating vertically upwards with acceleration $g$. Then,the ratio of pressure at the bottom $(P_B)$ and the midpoint $(P_m)$ of the tube will be:

The average translational kinetic energy of a molecule in a gas is $E_1$. The kinetic energy of the electron $(e)$ accelerated from rest through a potential difference of $V$ volts is $E_2$. The temperature at which $E_1 = E_2$ is possible is (where $N_A$ is Avogadro's number, $k_B$ is Boltzmann constant, and $R$ is the gas constant):
