Define root mean square speed (v_(rms)). Write down its equations.

1.	Define root mean square speed (v_(rms)). Write down its equations.
Answer» SOLUTION :Root MEAN SQUARE speed is defined as the square root of the mean of the square of speeds of all molecules. It is denoted by `v_(RMS)=sqrt(barv^(2))` . Mean square speed `barv^(2)=(3kT)/(m)` `v_(rms)=sqrt((3kT)/(m))=1.73 sqrt((kT)/(m))`
