Question
The root mean square speed of smoke particles of mass $5 \times 10^{-17}$ kg their Brownian motion in air at NTP is approximately [Given $\mathrm{k}=1.38 \times 10^{-23} \mathrm{JK}^{-1}$ ]
Select the correct option:
A
$60 \mathrm{~mm} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}$
B
$12 \mathrm{~mm} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}$
C
$15 \mathrm{~mm} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}$
D
$36 \mathrm{~mm} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}$
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Incorrect. Try again or view the solution.
Solution
$\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{rms}}=\sqrt{\frac{3 \mathrm{kT}}{\mathrm{m}}}=\sqrt{\frac{3 \times 1.38 \times 10^{-23} \times 293}{5 \times 10^{-17}}} \approx 15 \mathrm{~mm} / \mathrm{s}$
