Consider a gas enclosed in a box. Let the walls have an area of 0.01m2. Let’s say a few molecules having their x-component of velocity =2m/s, hit a wall parallel to the yz plane. What will be the value of force on the wall in time dt? Let the number of molecules per unit volume be 10 & mass of each molecule be 10-20kg.

An ideal gas is a gas where the atoms do not exert forces on each other but they do collide with the walls of the container (in elastic collisions).


Consider a gas enclosed in a box. Let the walls have an area of 0.01m<sup>2</sup>. Let’s say a few molecules having their x-component of velocity =2m/s, hit a wall parallel to the yz plane. What will be the value of force on the wall in time dt? Let the number of molecules per unit volume be 10 & mass of each molecule be 10<sup>-20</sup>kg.
