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.
