Theory of Kinetic energy gives us: PV = 1/3 NC^2.

Where NC^2 is root mean velocity.

Now if you multiply and divide by 2.

It gives => PV = 2/3*1/2NC^2 (K.E).

Pressure energy is related to macro level of system of gas. It is related to entire gas system. Whereas kinetic energy is energy at micro level energy, means at individual molecule level. And individual molecules having different K.E. , so how to compare them.

Kinetic energy is related to Pressure. Kinetic energy is chance of energy from one form to another form by means of change of velocity of the particles. Pressure increases velocity decrease. I we can relate this connection.

@Jitendra Harbolaji.

V^2 = 3RT/M, How this came?

To understand this relation please read kinetic theory of gases.

Dhinesh said:   1 decade ago
How the pressure is related K.E and please give the relation?

Sid said:   1 decade ago
Use kinetic theory of gases PV = 2/3 KE.

Please anyone can explain this briefly?

I did not get this question how can we compare the pressure and the kinetic energy?

How to relate pressure and K.E?
