Vedclass · Answer

(B) Given: Temperature $T = 314 \,K$, pressure $p = 100 \,kPa = 1.0 	imes 10^5 \,Pa$, speed of sound $v = 1380 \,ms^{-1}$, and radius of gas molecule $r = 0.5 \,Å = 0.5 	imes 10^{-10} \,m$. The diameter $d = 2r = 10^{-10} \,m$.The mean free path $\lambda$ is given by $\lambda = \frac{kT}{\sqrt{2} \pi d^2 p}$.The frequency $
u$ of the sound wave is given by $
u = \frac{v}{\lambda}$.Substituting $\lambda$ into the frequency formula, we get $
u = \frac{v \sqrt{2} \pi d^2 p}{kT}$.Substituting the given values:$
u = \frac{1380 	imes \sqrt{2} 	imes 3.14 	imes (10^{-10})^2 	imes 1.0 	imes 10^5}{1.38 	imes 10^{-23} 	imes 314}$$
u = \frac{1380 	imes \sqrt{2} 	imes 3.14 	imes 10^{-20} 	imes 10^5}{1.38 	imes 10^{-23} 	imes 314}$$
u = \frac{1380 	imes \sqrt{2} 	imes 3.14 	imes 10^{-15}}{1.38 	imes 314 	imes 10^{-23}}$$
u = \frac{1380 	imes \sqrt{2} 	imes 3.14 	imes 10^8}{433.32} \approx 10 	imes \sqrt{2} 	imes 10^8 \,Hz = \sqrt{2} 	imes 10^9 \,Hz = 1000 \sqrt{2} \,MHz$.Thus, the correct option is $B$.

The mean free path of a molecule of diameter $5\times10^{-10} \ m$ at the temperature $41^{\circ}C$ and pressure $1.38\times10^{5} \ Pa$ is given as . . . . . . $m$. (Given $k_{B}=1.38\times10^{-23} \ J/K$).

If the mean free path is doubled,the pressure becomes:

If $n$ is the number density and $d$ is the diameter of the molecule,then the average distance covered by a molecule between two successive collisions (i.e. mean free path) is represented by :
