Question: The average value of the squared 2 speed does not equal the square of the average speed () 2 To verify this fact, consider

The average value of the squared ῡ2speed does not equal the square of the average speed (ῡ)2 To verify this fact, consider three particles with the following speeds: v1 = 3.0 m /s, v2 = 7.0 m/s, and v3 = 9.0 m/s. Calculate

(a) ῡ2 = ⅓ (v1+ v2+ v3) and

(b) (ῡ)= [ ⅓ (v+ v+ v)]2
