Thermodynamic Processes

If a gas is compressed isothermally then the r.m.s. velocity of the molecules

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. vrms=3RTMv_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M}}, so vrms∝Tv_{rms} \propto \sqrt{T}.
  2. Isothermal: TT stays constant.
  3. So the answer is (b) remains the same.
