Hootenanny Staff Emeritus Science Advisor Gold Member Messages 9,621 Reaction score 9 Apr 24, 2008 #2 The RMS velocity is exactly what is sounds like, it is the square root of the mean velocity of all the particles within a system. How one would determine the RMS depends very much on the system that one is dealing with.
