The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the ratio of the mean square of the x-component of the velocity of gas A (denoted as \( \omega^2 \)) to the mean square velocity of gas B (denoted as \( v^2 \)). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Mean Square Velocity of Gas B**: The mean square velocity \( v^2 \) of gas B can be calculated using the formula: \[ v^2 = \frac{3kT}{m_B} \] where \( m_B \) is the mass of the molecules of gas B. Given that gas B has a mass of \( 2m \): \[ v^2 = \frac{3kT}{2m} \] 2. **Mean Square of the x-component of Velocity of Gas A**: For gas A, the mean square of the x-component of the velocity \( \omega^2 \) can be expressed as: \[ \omega^2 = \frac{1}{3} v_A^2 \] where \( v_A^2 \) is the mean square velocity of gas A. The mean square velocity \( v_A^2 \) for gas A (mass \( m \)) is given by: \[ v_A^2 = \frac{3kT}{m} \] Therefore, substituting this into the equation for \( \omega^2 \): \[ \omega^2 = \frac{1}{3} \left(\frac{3kT}{m}\right) = \frac{kT}{m} \] 3. **Finding the Ratio \( \frac{\omega^2}{v^2} \)**: Now, we can find the ratio of \( \omega^2 \) to \( v^2 \): \[ \frac{\omega^2}{v^2} = \frac{\frac{kT}{m}}{\frac{3kT}{2m}} = \frac{kT}{m} \cdot \frac{2m}{3kT} \] Simplifying this: \[ \frac{\omega^2}{v^2} = \frac{2}{3} \] ### Final Answer: The ratio \( \frac{\omega^2}{v^2} \) is \( \frac{2}{3} \).

To solve the problem, we need to find the ratio of the mean square of the x-component of the velocity of gas A (denoted as \( \omega^2 \)) to the mean square velocity of gas B (denoted as \( v^2 \)). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Mean Square Velocity of Gas B**: The mean square velocity \( v^2 \) of gas B can be calculated using the formula: \[ v^2 = \frac{3kT}{m_B} ...
