On any planet, the presence of atmosphere implies (Crms={C_{rms}} == root mean square velocity of molecules and Ve={V_e} = escape velocity)
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Crms<<Ve{C_{rms}} < < {V_e}
Option A (Crms<<Ve{C_{rms}} < < {V_e}) is correct because for a planet to have an atmosphere, the root mean square velocity of gas molecules must be much less than the escape velocity.
