ASSUMPTIONS OF KINETIC THEORY OF GAS
1. All gases are made up of atoms or molecules.

GAS PRESSURE
According to the kinetic theory of gasses, gas pressure is
the result of the collisions of large number of molecules
on the wall of the container.
35
Consider, initially a single molecule moving with a
velocity vx towards wall A and after colliding elastically ,
it moves in the opposite direction with a velocity vx as
shown in Figure below:
Wall
A Px 2mvx
B
36
Assume no collision between molecules, the molecule
travels a distance of 2d (from A to B and back to A)
before it collides with the same wall.

If the cube box contains N molecules moving with
velocities of vx1, vx2, vx3, …, vxN then the force on the
wall due to N molecules colliding with it is :
