It is called the root mean square of the velocity.
Temperature is a measurement of the kinetic energy of a system. It is expressed as
E=1/2mv2
where
E=energy
m=mass of the particles
v= the velocity of the particles.
Now it is understood that there will be a wide variance in the speed of all particles in the system but as we get only one temperature reading - that reading suggest a particular speed. This is where the word 'mean' comes from.
solving for v then gives
v=SQRT(2E/m)
Wouldn't it be nice if Wikianswers gave us more mathematical symbols to work with?
The measure of average speed of substances particles is called "Kinetic energy."
The measure of an object's particles average kinetic energy is its temperature. Temperature relates to the average speed of particles in an object.
The average speed of particles in a substance is determined by calculating the total distance traveled by all particles over a certain time period, and then dividing by the number of particles. This provides a measure of how fast, on average, the particles are moving within the substance.
Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance. This kinetic energy is directly related to the speed at which the particles are moving.
Yes, that is correct. The temperature of an object is a measure of the average kinetic energy of its particles, which is directly related to their speed. As the speed of the particles increases, so does the temperature of the object.
