The average value of the squared speed does not equal the square of the average speed. To verify this fact, consider three particles with the following speeds; v1 = 1.93 m/s, v2 = 4.87 m/s, and v3 = 7.79 m/s. Calculate (a) the average value of the squared speed and (b) the square of the average speed.
