Q41 / 72 · NTA Abhyas (JEE Main) 2020 · Physics · Motion In Two Dimensions
Consider a collection of a large number of particles each moving with speed . The direction of velocity is randomly distributed in the collection. Find the magnitude of the relative velocity between a pair of particles averaged over all the pairs in the collection.
- A
- B
- Correct answerC
- D
Solution
Consider any two particles whose velocity vector particles making angle .
Relative velocity vAB = vA - vB
Average of
Relative velocity vAB = vA - vB
Average of
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
