Suppose there are N molecules each of mass m of an ideal gas in a container. The x component of velocity of a molecule is denoted by ux. The gas is enclosed using a horizontal piston of area A. If the temperature of gas is doubled keeping volume constant, we know from the gas law that the pressure will be doubled. On microscopic level this increase in pressure is because
