If y(0) and v denote the sound velocity ...

If `y_(0)` and v denote the sound velocity and the rms velocity of the molecules in a gas, then .....

A

`v_(0) = v(3 // gamma)^(1//2)`

B

`v_(0) = 0`

C

`v_(0) = v(gamma// 3)^(1//2)`

D

`v_(0)` and v are not related

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`v_(0) = sqrt((gamma RT)/(M)) , v = sqrt((3RT)/(M)) implies (v_(o))/(v) = sqrt((gamma)/(3)) implies v_(0) = v((gamma)/(2))^(1//2)`
