JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 12 . kinetic theory of gases

The temperature of an ideal gas is increased from \(200\,K\) to \(800\,K\). If r.m.s. speed of gas at \(200\,K\) is \(v_0\). Then, r.m.s. speed of the gas at \(800\,K\) will be:

  1. A \(v _0\)
  2. B \(4 v_0\)
  3. C \(\frac{v_0}{4}\)
  4. D \(2 v _0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(2 v _0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(V _{ rms }=\sqrt{\frac{3 RT }{ M }}\) \(\Rightarrow V _{ rms } \alpha \sqrt{ T }\) Increasing temperature \(4\) times, rms speed gets doubled.
