Three closed vessels A, B and C are at the same temperature T and contain gases which obey the Maxwellian distribution of velocities. Vessel A contains only O2, B only N2 and C a mixture of equal quantities of O2 and N2. If the average speed of the O2 molecules in vessel A is v1 that of the N2 molecules in vessel B is v2, the average speed of the O2 molecules in vessel C is
  1. v1
  2. (v1·v2)1/2

  3. where M is the mass of an oxygen molecule.

Answer

(B) v 1
