JEE Main 2022 · 25 Jun · Shift 1, Physics question 37

The relation between root mean square speed (vrmsv_{\rm rms}) and most probable speed (vpv_p) for the molar mass M of oxygen gas molecule at the temperature of 300 K will be :

Choose one option
Answer and worked solution

Official answer: B

Speeds. vrms=3RTMv_{\rm rms}=\sqrt{\dfrac{3RT}M} and vp=2RTMv_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{2RT}M}, so vrms=32 vpv_{\rm rms}=\sqrt{\dfrac32}\,v_p.

(B)
