The atmosphere of Jupiter contains methane gas at `- 130^(@)C`. What is the rms velocity?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the root mean square (RMS) velocity of methane gas in the atmosphere of Jupiter at a temperature of -130°C, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert the temperature from Celsius to Kelvin The temperature in Celsius is given as -130°C. To convert this to Kelvin, we use the formula: \[ T(K) = T(°C) + 273 \] So, \[ T = -130 + 273 = 143 \, K \] ...
