Question

Five molecules of an ideal gas have velocities 2, 3, 4, 4 and 5 m/s. If their average velocity is \(\bar v\) and their RMS velocity is \(V_{rms}\) then

• A. \(v_{rms}^2>\bar v^2\)
• B. \(v_{rms}=\bar v\)
• C. \(v_{rms}<\bar v\)
• D. \(v_{rms}\bar v\)=1

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

The correct option is (A): \(v_{rms}^2>\bar v^2\)
