The mean free path is a concept used in physics to describe the average distance a particle travels between collisions. The correct expression for the mean free path is:

Correct Formula

The correct answer is:

  • A. λ = KT / √2 π d² P

Explanation of Variables

In this formula:

  • λ represents the mean free path.
  • K is the Boltzmann constant.
  • T is the absolute temperature.
  • d is the diameter of the particles.
  • P is the pressure of the gas.

This equation shows how the mean free path is influenced by temperature, particle size, and pressure, providing insight into the behavior of gases at a molecular level.
