A monoatomic ideal gas, initially at temperature $T_1$ is enclosed in a cylinder fitted with frictionless piston. The gas is allowed to expand adiabatically to a temperature $T_2$ by releasing the piston suddenly. $L_1$ and $L_2$ are the lengths of the gas columns before and after the expansion respectively. The ratio $T_2 / T_1$ is
In an ideal gas at temperature $T$, the average force that a molecule applies on the walls of a closed container depends on $T$ as $\mathrm{T}^{\mathrm{x}}$. The value of $x$ is
Heat engine operating between temperature $T_1$ and $T_2$ has efficiency $\frac{1}{6}$. When $T_2$ is lowered by 62 K , its efficiency increases to $\frac{1}{3}$. Then $T_1$ and $T_2$ respectively are
The absolute temperature of a gas is determined by
