| Apr 9, 2019 at 10:34 | comment | added | JMac | This is more a comment than an answer to OP's question. Also, it seems like you're talking about something that the OP wasn't. When they said "the gas does accelerate"; presumably they were talking about the bulk of the gas, analyzed as a fluid, not as a collection of molecules. Although on the molecular level, nothing may accelerate, on a macroscopic level, the gas would need to accelerate as it expands out of the opening, as it had 0 net velocity when in the pressurized container. | |
