Applying law of conservation of linear momentum

0.1×20 = (1.9+0.1)V

2 = 2 V

V = 1 m/sec

12. To raise the temperature of a certain mass of gas by 50°C at a constant pressure, 160 calories of heat is required. When the same mass of gas is cooled by 100°C at constant volume, 240 calories of heat is released. How many degrees of freedom does each molecule of this gas have (assume gas to be ideal)?


1) 6
2) 7
3) 5

1) 2
2) 2.6
3) 4
4) 3.2

Answer: (1)

JEE Main 2020 Physics Shift 2 - 3rd Sept Practice Question Paper

Heat lost by steam = heat gained by water

180×1×(31-25)+20×(31-25)= m×540+m×1×(100-31)

180×6+20×6 = 540m + 100 m – 31m

1200 = 609m

m = 1200/609
