Understanding +4 | -1
For a gas at a temperature T\mathrm{T} the root mean square velocity Vrms\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{rms}} and the most probable speed VmpV_{m p}, and the average speed VavV_{a v} obey the relationship -
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Vmp>Vrms >VavV_{\mathrm{mp}}>V_{\text {rms }}>V_{a v}
Option B (Vrms >Vav >VmpV_{\text {rms }}>V_{\text {av }}>V_{m p }) is correct because the root mean square velocity is always greater than the average velocity, which is greater than the most probable speed.
