Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Pressure, \(P=\frac{1}{3} \frac{m N}{V} V_{r m s}^{2}\)

or, \(\quad P=\frac{(m N) T}{V}\)

If the gas mass and temperature are constant then

\(P \propto\left(V_{\max }\right)^{2} \propto T\)

So, force \(\propto\left(V_{\text {rns }}\right)^{2} \propto T\)

i.e., Value of \(q=1\)
