Concept explainers
To Calculate:The rms speed of gas molecules increase if the temperature is increased.
Answer to Problem 48P
The rms speed of gas molecules increase if the temperature is increased from
Explanation of Solution
Given info:
Temperature,
And,
Formula used:
The root mean square speed of the helium gas is,
Here,
Calculation:
The rms value for the first case,
And, also for the second case,
Now divide the equation (1) by equation (2), then
Conclusion:
The rms speed of gas molecules increase by the factor
