  1. Each part of this question covers a key concept. Each requiresat most a few sentences to answer; some are much shorter. Please beconcise.

    1. (a) What does the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution describe for agas in thermal equi- librium? Suppose a gas in a closed cylinder iskept at constant temperature while being compressed to half itsoriginal volume. What effect does this compression have on thepressure that the gas exerts on the walls of the cylinder? Whatwould happen if the same amount of compression occurs at a higher(but still constant) temperature?

    2. (b) Two planets have identical diameters but differ in mass by afactor of 20. Which planet has the larger escape velocity? By whatfactor?

    3. (c) Jeopardy Question. Give a question with the followinganswer: This occurs when compression due to gravity is balanced bya pressure gradient, which creates a force in the oppositedirection
