Q:

For an ideal gas, which one of the following statements does not hold true?

A) The speed of all gas molecules is same B) The kinetic energies of all gas molecules are not same
C) The potential energy of the gas molecules is zero D) There is no interactive force between the molecules.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) The speed of all gas molecules is same

Explanation:

In an ideal gas, at any particular time, different particles in the gas have different speeds and hence different kinetic energies. This assumption is reasonable because as the particles collide, we expect their speed to change. Even if initial speed of all the particles was same, the molecular collisions will disrupt this uniformity.Hence statement 1 is incorrect and 2 is correct.

Q:

In spherical polar coordinates (l, q, a), q denotesthe polar angle around z-axis and a denotes the azimuthal angle raised from x-axis . Then the y-component of P is given by

A) Psinq sina B) Psinq cosa
C) Pcosq sina D) Pcosq cosa
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Psinq sina

Explanation:

The Cartesian Coordinates can be retrieved from spherical coordinates (l,q,a) by:

X = r.sinq.cosa

Y = r.sinq.sina

Z = r.sinq

Using the same we get for P,

Y = P.sinq.sina
