Options:
  • A $P=\frac{E}{2 V}$
  • B $P=\frac{3}{2} \frac{E}{V}$
  • C $P=\frac{E}{3 V}$
  • D $P=\frac{2}{3} \frac{E}{V}$

The correct answer is: $P=\frac{2}{3} \frac{E}{V}$
Kinetic energy is given by
$\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{K} . \mathrm{E}=\frac{3}{2} \mathrm{RT} \\
& \text { since, } \mathrm{PV}=\mathrm{n} \mathrm{RT} \\
& \text { Here } \mathrm{n}=1 \\
& \mathrm{E}=\frac{3}{2} \mathrm{PV} \Rightarrow \mathrm{P}=\frac{2 \mathrm{E}}{3 \mathrm{~V}}
\end{aligned}$
