Question
The molecular weight of two gases is and . At any temperature, the ratio of root mean square velocities and will be:
The root mean square velocity () of a gas molecule is given by the formula (or thermal speed ) . At a constant temperature (), the velocity is inversely proportional to the square root of the molecular weight (): . Therefore, the ratio of the velocities is: .
This question aligns with the NEET PHYSICS syllabus, specifically targeting concepts from Kinetic Theory. Mastering this topic is crucial for scoring well in the upcoming medical entrance examinations. Solving conceptually related problems will help you understand the nuances of these concepts and improve your problem-solving speed.
