For a gas sample with N 0 number of molecules, function N(V) is given by :
N(V) = 
V 2 for 0 ≤ V ≤ V 0 and N(V) = 0 for V > V 0 where dN is number of molecules in speed range V to V + dV. The rms speed of the molecules is -
A
V 0
B
V 0
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
= < V 2 > = 
= 
here 
= N(V)
= 
= 
V 2 dV = 
⇒ V rms = 
V 0
