ABCDEFGH is a hollw cube made of an insulator(figure) face ABCD has positive charges on it. Inside the cube, we have ionsed hydrogen. The usual kinetic theory expression for pressure

Answer»

will be valid
will not be valid, since the ions would experience FORCE other than due to COLLISION with the walls
will not be valid, since collision with walls would not be elastic
will not be valid because isotropy is lost

Solution :Sol. (b,d) According to the problem, inized hydrogen is present inside the cube, they are having charge. Now, due to the presence of positive charge forces due to collosion with the walls of container. So, these force must be of electrostic nature. Hence, Isotropy of system is lost at only one face ABCD because of the presence of external positive charge. The usual expression for pressure on the BASIS of KINETIC of kinetic theory will be valid.
