Q27 / 46 · NTA Abhyas (NEET) 2020 · Physics · Kinetic Theory of Gases

Which of the following plot is correct about Maxwell's speed distribution law?

A
B
C
Correct answer
D

Solution

The speed corresponding to maxima is

u_{m p s}

.

U_{m p s} > u_{a v g} > u_{r m s}

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
