Question:

The speed of a molecule in a uniform gas at equilibrium is a random variable V whose probability distribution is given by where k is an appropriate constant and b depends on the absolute temperature and mass of the molecule. Find the probability distribution of the kinetic energy of the molecule W, where W = mV²/2.
