If the distribution of molecular speeds of a gas is as per the figure shown below, then the ratio of the most probable, the average, and the root mean square speeds, respectively, is
- $1: 1: 1$
- $1: 1: 1.224$
- $1: 1.128: 1.224$
- $1: 1.128: 1$
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
In a symmetrical graph, the average value of speed corresponds to the midpoint, which is also the most probable speed.
However, when calculating the root mean square (rms) speed, we compute the average of the squares of the speeds and then take the square root. Since higher speeds contribute more to the squared value, the result will be higher than the average speed value.
So the Correct Option is (B): $1: 1: 1.224$

- Coordinate Geometry
The center of a disk of radius $ r $ and mass $ m $ is attached to a spring of spring constant $ k $, inside a ring of radius $ R>r $ as shown in the figure. The other end of the spring is attached on the periphery of the ring. Both the ring and the disk are in the same vertical plane. The disk can only roll along the inside periphery of the ring, without slipping. The spring can only be stretched or compressed along the periphery of the ring, following Hooke’s law. In equilibrium, the disk is at the bottom of the ring. Assuming small displacement of the disc, the time period of oscillation of center of mass of the disk is written as $ T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega} $. The correct expression for $ \omega $ is ( $ g $ is the acceleration due to gravity):
