To solve the problem, we need to calculate the most probable speed (U_mp), average speed (U_av), and root mean square speed (U_rms) of the gas molecules based on the given data. ### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Identify the most probable speed (U_mp)**: - The most probable speed is defined as the speed at which the maximum number of molecules is found. - From the given data, we see that 30% of the molecules have a speed of 9 m/s, which is the highest percentage. - Therefore, the most probable speed (U_mp) is: ...
