The mean free path for a gas, with molecular diameter \(d\) and number density \(n,\) can be expressed as:

1. \( \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2} n \pi {d}^2} \) 2. \( \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2} n^2 \pi {d}^2} \)
3. \(\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2} n^2 \pi^2 d^2} \) 4. \( \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2} n \pi {d}}\)

If the mean free path of atoms is doubled, then the pressure of the gas will become:

1. \(\frac{P}{4}\)                   
2. \(\frac{P}{2}\)
3. \(\frac{P}{8}\)
4. \(P\)

If the pressure in a closed vessel is reduced by drawing out some gas, the mean free path of the molecules:

1. decreases
2. increases
3. remains unchanged
4. increases or decreases according to the nature of the gas
