Assume that the average speed for the molecules within a sample of gas is 150 m/s. What would be possible values for the root-mean-square and most-probable speeds?

1. vrms = 162 m/s, vmp = 132 m/s
2. vrms = 132 m/s, vmp = 162 m/s
3. vrms = 150 m/s, vmp = 150 m/s
4. vrms = 182 m/s, vmp = 162 m/s

Treat each of your eyes as a circular aperture of diameter 3.5 mm. Light of wavelength 500 nm is used to view two point sources that are 894 m distant from you

How far apart must these two point sources be if they are to be just resolved by your eye? Assume that the resolution is diffraction limited and use Rayleigh's criterion.
