To solve the problem, we need to find the ratio of the root mean square energy (Erms) to the average energy (Eav) for an ideal gas in three dimensions. We will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write down the expressions for Eav and Erms - The average energy (Eav) of an ideal gas in three dimensions is given by: \[ E_{av} = \frac{3}{2} k_B T \] - The root mean square energy (Erms) is given by: ...
