$A$ very tall vertical cylinder is filled with a gas of molar mass $M$ under isothermal conditions at temperature $T$. The density and pressure of the gas at the base of the container are $\rho_0$ and $p_0$,respectively. Choose the correct statement$(s)$ if gravity is assumed to be constant throughout the container.

$STATEMENT-1$: The total translational kinetic energy of all the molecules of a given mass of an ideal gas is $1.5$ times the product of its pressure and its volume. Because
$STATEMENT-2$: The molecules of a gas collide with each other and the velocities of the molecules change due to the collision.

If the heat required to increase the rms speed of $4$ moles of a diatomic gas from $v$ to $\sqrt{3} v$ is $83.1 \ kJ$,then the initial temperature of the gas is (Universal gas constant $R = 8.31 \ J \ mol^{-1} \ K^{-1}$) (in $^{\circ} C$)

The left and right compartments of a thermally isolated container of length $L$ are separated by a thermally conducting,movable piston of area $A$. The left and right compartments are filled with $\frac{3}{2}$ and $1$ moles of an ideal gas,respectively. In the left compartment,the piston is attached by a spring with spring constant $k$ and natural length $\frac{2L}{5}$. In thermodynamic equilibrium,the piston is at a distance $\frac{L}{2}$ from the left and right edges of the container as shown in the figure. Under the above conditions,if the pressure in the right compartment is $P = \frac{kL}{A} \alpha$,then the value of $\alpha$ is:
