Answer

Correct option: A.
A magnetic field is applied normally
a
(a)In discharge tube cathode rays (a beam of negative particles) and canal rays (positive rays) moves opposite to each other. They will experience a magnetic force in the same direction, if a normal magnetic field is switched on

Initially a gas of diatomic molecules is contained in a cylinder of volume $V _{1}$ at a pressure $P_{1}$ and temperature $250\, K$. Assuming that $25 \%$ of the molecules get dissociated causing a change in number of moles. The pressure of the resulting gas at temperature $2000\, K ,$ when contained in a volume $2 V _{1}$ is given by $P _{2}$. The ratio $\frac{P _{2}}{  P _{1}}$ is.

A spherical soap bubble inside an air chamber at pressure $P_0=10^5 Pa$ has a certain radius so that the excess pressure inside the bubble is $\Delta P=144 Pa$. Now, the chamber pressure is reduced to $8 P_0 / 27$ so that the bubble radius and its excess pressure change. In this process, all the temperatures remain unchanged. Assume air to be an ideal gas and the excess pressure $\Delta P$ in both the cases to be much smaller than the chamber pressure. The new excess pressure $\Delta P$ in $Pa$ is

Statement $-I$ : What $\mu$ amount of an ideal gas undergoes adiabatic change from state $\left( P _{1}, V _{1}, T _{1}\right)$ to state $\left( P _{2}, V _{2}, T _{2}\right)$, the work done is $W =\frac{1 R \left( T _{2}- T _{1}\right)}{1-\gamma}$, where $\gamma=\frac{ C _{ P }}{ C _{ V }}$ and $R =$ universal gas constant,

Statement $-II$ : In the above case. when work is done on the gas. the temperature of the gas would rise.
