A - The law of conservation of energy

B - Newton’s law of gravitation

C - Archimedes principle

D - Charle’s law

Q 5 - Consider the following statements:

1. The temperature of a gas is characteristically a measure of the average translational kinetic energy of the molecules.

2. In a hot gas, the molecules move slower in comparison to a cold gas.

Choose the correct answer from the codes given below:

A - Only 1

B - Only 2

C - Both

D - Neither 1 nor 2

Answer : A

Explanation

In a hot gas, the molecules move faster in comparison to a cold gas.

Answer : A

Explanation

For any sort of airfoil producing lift, there must be a pressure imbalance, it means, the lower average air pressure on the top than on the bottom. Therefore, the Bernoulli's principle states that this pressure difference must be accompanied by the speed difference.
