Question

which is faster: an average gas particle in the air or an average car on the highway? they move at about the same speed! an average car on the highway! an average gas particle! unable to determine without specific data!

Explanation:

Gas particles in air move at high speeds due to thermal - motion. At room temperature, the average speed of air molecules (gas particles) can be several hundred meters per second. An average car on the highway typically travels at speeds around 60 - 130 km/h (16.7 - 36.1 m/s). So, gas particles are much faster.

Answer:

C. An average gas particle!
