Cooking gas containers are kept in a lorry moving with uniform speed. The temperature of the gas molecules inside will(a) increase(b) decrease(c) remain same(d) decrease for some, while increase for others
Exp. (c)Temperature of a gas is determined by the total transactional kinetic energy 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.
