THE AIR CONTAIN CERTAIN NUMBER OF MOLECULES , the molecule have a certain amount of heat energy , when the air is compressed trhe total heat enrgy now occupies a smaller volume , unless the heat is rapidly removed , the air is being compressed
the air temp has to be increased beacuse the heat energy per unit volume is increasing .
now imagine a gas was in cylinder and expand by pushing agnaist a piston , the movement will involve of work being done , the work will need energy which will come from kinetic energy ,
HOPE IT CLEARS
ALL THE BEST ..

Thanku so mucn it was helping..Does it mean the expansion is a cooling effect only in a closed containers or vessels etc not in the atmosphere ?

. Because of the rotation of the earth, a plumb bob may not hang exactly along the direction of
the earth’s gravitational pull (its weight) but deviates slightly from this direction. Calculate the
deviation (a) at 40 latitude, (b) at the poles, and (c) at the equator

The length of a massless rod is measured using vernier callipers having 10 vernier scale divisions and least count of 0.1 mm. Two masses 1.00 ± 0.01 kg and 4.00 ± 0.02 kg are attached to its ends. If reading of vernier scale is 5 divisions coinciding with 1.3 cm, what is the % error in locating centre of mass from lighter mass
