A massless spring (k = 800 N/m), attached with a mass (500 g) is completely immersed in 1 kg of water. The spring is stretched by 2 cm and released so that it starts vibrating. What would be the order of magnitude of the change in the temperature of water when the vibrations stop completely ? (Assume that the water container and spring receive negligible heat and specific heat of mass = 400 J/kg K, specific heat of water = 4184 J/kg K)

For a given gas at 1 atm pressure, rms speed of the molecule is 200 m/s at 127°C. At 2 atm pressure and at 227°C, the rms speed of the molecules will be :

Following figure shows two processes A and B for a gas. If $$\Delta $$Q_A and $$\Delta $$Q_B are the amount of heat absorbed by the system in two cases, and $$\Delta $$U_A and $$\Delta $$U_B are changes in internal energies, respectively, then :

An HCl molecule has rotational, translational and vibrational motions. If the rms velocity of HCl molecules in its gaseous phase is $$\overline v $$ , m is its mass and k_B is Boltzmann constant, then its temperature will be :
