    Undergrad Why Is RMS Speed Used to Represent Average Speed in Gases?

    obviously the root-means-square speed value is greater than the average value. Question is to why the root-mean-square speed is taken as a kind of average speed for gases but formula used in statistic in getting average number ? As when the number is squared, the final average value is...
