Three closed vessels A, B and C are at the same
temperature T and contain gases which obey the
Maxwellian distribution of velcoities. Vessel A contains
only O2, B only N2 and C a mixture of equal quantities
of O2 and N2. If the average speed of 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
will be :
(A) (V1 + V2) / 2

(B) V1

(C)
 

(D)
