[SOLVED] Force exerted by a gas
A sealed cubical container 30.0 cm on a side contains three times Avogadro's number of molecules at a temperature of 23.0°C. Find the force exerted by the gas on one of the walls of the container.
F=Nm/d(v^2)
P=F/A
There always seems to be a missing variable to plug into the equations. Are there any hints that can get me pointed in the correct direction?
thanks
