Consider a gas with density ρ\rho and cˉ\bar{c} as the root mean square velocity of its molecules contained in a volume. If the system moves as a whole with velocity vv , then the pressure exerted by the gas is: a. 13ρcˉ2\frac{1}{3} \rho \bar{c}^2 b. 13ρ(cˉ+v)2\frac{1}{3} \rho (\bar{c} + v)^2 c. 13ρ(cˉ−v)2\frac{1}{3} \rho (\bar{c} - v)^2 d. 13ρ(cˉ2−v2)\frac{1}{3} \rho (\bar{c}^2 - v^2)
