$A$ vessel contains $14\,g$ of nitrogen gas at a temperature of $27^{\circ}\,C$. The amount of heat to be transferred to the gas to double the r.m.s. speed of its molecules will be $......J$ (Take $R = 8.32\,J\,mol^{-1}K^{-1}$)

Cooking gas containers are kept in a lorry moving with uniform speed. The temperature of the gas molecules inside will

$(a)$ When a molecule (or an elastic ball) hits a massive wall,it rebounds with the same speed. When a ball hits a massive bat held firmly,the same thing happens. However,when the bat is moving towards the ball,the ball rebounds with a different speed. Does the ball move faster or slower?
$(b)$ When gas in a cylinder is compressed by pushing in a piston,its temperature rises. Guess at an explanation of this in terms of kinetic theory using $(a)$ above.
$(c)$ What happens when a compressed gas pushes a piston out and expands? What would you observe?
$(d)$ Sachin Tendulkar used a heavy cricket bat while playing. Did it help him in any way?

$A$ horizontal uniform glass tube of $100 \ cm$ length, sealed at both ends, contains a $10 \ cm$ mercury column in the middle. The temperature and pressure of air on either side of the mercury column are $31^{\circ} C$ and $76 \ cm$ of mercury, respectively. If the air column at one end is kept at $0^{\circ} C$ and the other end at $273^{\circ} C$, then the pressure of air which is at $0^{\circ} C$ is (in $cm$ of $Hg$):

An insulated system contains $4$ moles of an ideal diatomic gas at temperature $T$. When a heat $Q$ is supplied to the gas,$2$ moles of the gas is dissociated into atoms and the temperature remains constant. Then the relation between $Q$ and $T$ is ($R=$ universal gas constant.)

As per the kinetic theory of gases, which of the following statements is/are true?
$(a)$ Temperature of a gas is a measure of the average kinetic energy of a molecule.
$(b)$ Temperature of a gas depends on the nature of the gas.
$(c)$ Heavier molecules have lower average speed.
$(d)$ Lighter molecules have lower average speed.
