The speed of 5 molecules of a gas (in arbitrary units) are as follows:2,3,4,5,6 the root mean square speed for these molecule is

A

2.91

B

3.52

C

4

D

4.24

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`nu_(rms)=sqrt((nu_(1)^(2)+nu_(2)^(2)+nu_(2)^(3)+...nu_(n)^(2))/n)implies 4.24"unit"`
