Kinetic Theory of Gas

The Kinetic Theory of gases is a classical model of gases, according to which gases are composed of molecules/particles that are in random motion. While undergoing this random motion, kinetic energy in molecules can assume random velocity across all directions. It also says that the constituent particles/molecules undergo elastic collision, which means that the total kinetic energy remains constant before and after the collision. The average kinetic energy of the particles also determines the pressure of the gas.

P-V Diagram

A P-V diagram is a very important tool of the branch of physics known as thermodynamics, which is used to analyze the working and hence the efficiency of thermodynamic engines. As the name suggests, it is used to measure the changes in pressure (P) and volume (V) corresponding to the thermodynamic system under study. The P-V diagram is used as an indicator diagram to control the given thermodynamic system.

Activity 1: Counting Microstates and Calculating Probabilities
If there is only one molecule of gas in the system (N=1), then there are 2 possible microstates for
the system. If N=2, there are 4 possible microstates. This becomes easy to see if you think of all
the possible ways to arrange the molecules and draw a diagram of each one, as shown below.
N = 1
N = 2
1. In the space below, draw a sketch of all possible microstates for N = 3. Use different shapes
or different colors so you can tell the particles apart. You should work it out on scratch paper
first. What is the total number of microstates?
N= 3
2. In the space below, draw a sketch of all possible microstates for N = 4. What is the total
number of microstates?
24 = 16

3. Can you see a pattern emerging? Come up with a general formula for the total number of
microstates for a system of N gas molecules. The only variable in your formula should be N.

Problem 4: Speed deamplifier. In the figure above on the right, block 1 of mass m1 slides along an x-axis on a frictionless floor at speed 4 m/sec.Then it undergoes a one-dimensional elastic collision with stationary block 2 of mass m2 = 2m1. Next, block 2 undergoes a one-dimensional elastic collision with stationary block 3 of mass mz = 4m1. What then is the speed of block 3? Answer: 16 m/sec or 1.78 m/sec.
