An insulated container contains a monoatomic gas of molar mass $M$. The container is moving with velocity $V$. If it is stopped suddenly, the change in temperature of the gas is ($R$ = gas constant).

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:

Molecules in the atmosphere are attracted by the gravitational force of the Earth. Explain why all of them do not fall onto the Earth,just like an apple falling from a tree.

Select the $incorrect$ statement$(s)$.

$(a)$ 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?
