Serway & Jewett β€” The Kinetic Theory of Gases: Problem 27.

Eight molecules have speeds of \(3.00 \text{ km/s}\), \(4.00 \text{ km/s}\), \(5.80 \text{ km/s}\), \(2.50 \text{ km/s}\), \(3.60 \text{ km/s}\), \(1.90 \text{ km/s}\), \(3.80 \text{ km/s}\), and \(6.60 \text{ km/s}\). Find (a) the average speed of the molecules and (b) the rms speed of the molecules.
