Eight bumper cars, each with a mass of 322 kg. are running in a room 21.0 m long and 130 m wide. They have no driver, so they just bounce around on their own. The rms speed of the cars is 2.50 m/s. Repeating the arguments of Pressure, Temperature, and RMS Speed, find the average force per unit length (analogous to Pressure) that the cars exert the walls.
In the hot gases of an automotive engine's cylinders, temperatures may exceed 3100 k. What would be the "root mean square" or "rms" velocity of a hydrogen atom, if one happened to be in that gas after some chemical reaction? The mass of a hydrogen atom is about 1.66x10-27 kg. Give your answer in m/s, but enter only the number.
