Question

What is average speed of gas?​

Answer 1

Average speed of a gas is a rate. In kinematics, a rate is always a quantity divided by the time taken to get that quantity (the elapsed time). Since average speed is the rate position changes, average speed = distance traveled/time taken.

Answer 2

Answer--- ∆

◆ About 500 m/sec.

● So the average speed of a gas

molecule is about 500 m/sec. This

is roughly the speed of sound in a

gas 340 m/sec. So the average

kinetic energy of the gas molecules

is related to the temperature of the

gas.
