Select the incorrect statement about Maxwell's speed distribution.

For a given gas,the velocities of $5$ molecules are $2, 3, 4, 5,$ and $6$. What is the $rms$ velocity?

Difficult
View Solution

Consider an ideal gas with the following distribution of speeds:
Speed $(m/s)$$\%$ of molecules
$200$$10$
$400$$20$
$600$$40$
$800$$20$
$1000$$10$

$(a)$ Calculate $v_{rms}$ and hence $T$. (Given mass of one molecule $m = 3.0 \times 10^{-26} \ kg$, Boltzmann constant $k_B = 1.38 \times 10^{-23} \ J/K$)
$(b)$ If all the molecules with speed $1000 \ m/s$ escape from the system, calculate the new $v_{rms}$ and hence the new $T$.
