In an ideal gas without preferred direction of motion of molecules,

A

`V_(x)=V_(y)=V_(z)`

B

`V_(x)^(2)=V_(y)^(2)=V_(z)^(2)`

C

`barV_(x)^(2)=barV_(y)^(2)=barV_(z)^(2)`

D

None of the above

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

An isotropic gas is one which have same properties throughout and their molecules are all moving random directions, so only average values of square of their velocity components are equal.
