Certain amount of an ideal gas is contained in a closed vessel. The vessel is moving with a constant velcity v. The molecular mass of gas is M. The rise in temperature of the gas when the vessel is suddenly stopped is γ=CP/CV

Solution
The correct option is BMv2(γ−1)/2R If m is the mass of the gas, then its kinetic energy =12mv2
When the vessel is suddenly stopped, total kinetic energy will increase the temperature of the gas (because process will be adiabatic), i.e., =12mv2=nCvΔT =mMCvΔT ⟹mMR(γ−1)ΔT=12mv2 (AsCv=R(γ−1))
