A thermodynamic system is taken from an original state D to an intermediate state E by the linear process shown in the figure. Its volume is then reduced to the original volume from E to F by an isobaric process. The total work done by the gas from D to E to F will be
The root mean square speed of smoke particles of mass $$5 \times 10^{-17} \mathrm{~kg}$$ in their Brownian motion in air at NTP is approximately. [Given $$\mathrm{k}=1.38 \times 10^{-23} \mathrm{JK}^{-1}$$]
A vessel contains $$14 \mathrm{~g}$$ of nitrogen gas at a temperature of $$27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$$. The amount of heat to be transferred to the gas to double the r.m.s speed of its molecules will be :
Take $$\mathrm{R}=8.32 \mathrm{~J} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1} \,\mathrm{k}^{-1}$$.
Sun light falls normally on a surface of area $$36 \mathrm{~cm}^{2}$$ and exerts an average force of $$7.2 \times 10^{-9} \mathrm{~N}$$ within a time period of 20 minutes. Considering a case of complete absorption, the energy flux of incident light is
