Rms speed
Question

The molecules of a given mass of a gas have r.m.s. velocity of 200 m s-1 at 27°C and  1.0×105 N m-2 pressure. When the
temperature and pressure of the gas are respectively, 127°Cand 0.05×105 N m-2 the  r.m.s. velocity of its molecules in ms-1

Moderate
Solution

 As, vrms=3kBTm

v27v127=27+273127+273=300400=32

 or v127=23×v27=23×200 m s-1=4003 m s-1
