For a gas at a temperature TT the root-mean-square velocity vrms,{v_{rms}}, the most probable speed vmp,{v_{mp}}, and the average speed vav{v_{av}} obey the relationship
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
vrms>vav>vmp{v_{rms}} > {v_{av}} > {v_{mp}}
Option B (vrms>vav>vmp{v_{rms}} > {v_{av}} > {v_{mp}}) is correct because the root-mean-square velocity is always greater than the average velocity, which is greater than the most probable speed.
