It might seem more natural to give the average speed rather than vrms, but vrms followsmore directly from specific equations. To compute the root of the mean of the squares(rms speed), we square each molecular speed, add, divide by the number of molecules,and take the square root to get vrms.Five gas molecules have speeds of 500, 600, 700, 800, and 900 m/s. Find the gasmolecule’s rms speed and the average speed
From the knowledge that CV, the molar specific heat at constant volume, for a gas in a container is 5.0R, calculate the ratio of the speed of sound in that gas to the rms speed of the molecules, for gas temperature T.
