hmm.. i will check n answer.. not sure..
A thermometer at rest in an ideal gas records a temperature T. The same thermometer when moving with a velocity V in the positive x-direction records a temperature T'. IF m is the mass of the gas molecule, then:
a)T=T'
b)T'=T+mv2/3K
c)T'=T-mv2/3K
d)T'<T-mv2/3K

yes the answer is b! i too got it but i marked A! i marked A because the velocity with wich the thermometer is moved in not the root mean square speed! b comes only after using the rms formula!!!!!!!!!!
correct me!!!!!!!!!!
