2 (a) A square box of volume $V$ contains $N$ molecules of an ideal gas. Each molecule has mass $m$ .
Using the kinetic theory of ideal gases, it can be shown that, if all the molecules are moving with speed $v$ at right angles to one face of the box, the pressure $p$ exerted on the face of the box is given by the expression
$$
pV = Nmv^2.
$$
(equation 1)
This expression leads to the formula
$$
p = \frac{1}{3}\rho(c^2)
$$
(equation 2)
for the pressure $p$ of an ideal gas, where $\rho$ is the density of the gas and $(c^2)$ is the mean-square speed of the molecules.
Explain how each of the following terms in equation 2 is derived from equation 1:

4 A dish is made from a section of a hollow glass sphere.
The dish, fixed to a horizontal table, contains a small solid ball of mass 45g, as shown in Fig. 4.1.
Fig. 4.1
The horizontal displacement of the ball from the centre C of the dish is $x$ .
Initially, the ball is held at rest with distance $x = 3.0$ cm.
The ball is then released. The variation with time $t$ of the horizontal displacement $x$ of the ball from point C is shown in Fig. 4.2.
Fig. 4.2
The motion of the ball in the dish is simple harmonic with its acceleration $a$ given by the expression
$$
a = -\left(\frac{g}{R}\right)x
$$
where $g$ is the acceleration of free fall and $R$ is a constant that depends on the dimensions of the dish and the ball.

(a) Use Fig. 4.2 to show that the angular frequency $\omega$ of oscillation of the ball in the dish is $2.9 \, \text{rad} \, \text{s}^{-1}$ .
[1]
(b) Use the information in (a) to:
(i) determine $R$
$$
R = \underline{\hspace{5cm}} \, \text{m} \, [2]
$$
(ii) calculate the speed of the ball as it passes over the centre C of the dish.
$$
\text{speed} = \underline{\hspace{5cm}} \, \text{m} \, \text{s}^{-1} \, [2]
$$
(c) Some moisture collects on the surface of the dish so that the motion of the ball becomes lightly damped.
On the axes of Fig. 4.2, draw a line to show the lightly damped motion of the ball for the first 5.0 s after the release of the ball.
