Grade 12Thermal PhysicsThe volume of an ideal gas is 1 litre and it`s pressure is equal to 72 cm of mercury column . The volume of gas is made 900 cm3 by compressing it isothermally. The stess of the gas will be Abhishek patil 8 Years agoGrade 12
Arun8 Years agoDear Abhishek P1 * v1 = P2 * v2 72 * 1000 = P2 * 900 P2 = 80 cm( mercury) Hence Stress = P = P2 - P1 = 80 - 72 = 8cm (mercury) Regards Arun (askIITians forum expert)
