Updated On: Jul 28, 2022
- increase
- decrease
- remain same
- decrease for some, while increase for others
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Temperature of a gas is determined by the total translational KE measured with respect to the centre of mass of the gas. Therefore, the motion of centre of mass of the gas does not affect the temperature. Hence, the temperature of gas will remain same.

- A uniform narrow tube of length one metre with one end closed contains 25 cm long mercury thread, which traps a column of air at the closed end. When the tube is held vertically with the open end up, the length of the air column near the closed end is 21 cm and when the tube is held horizontally, the length of the air column near the closed end is ‘L’. If the atmospheric pressure is equal to the pressure of 75 cm of mercury, then \( L \) is:
