The Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution $f(v_x)$ of one-dimensional velocities $v_x$ at temperature T is [Given: A is a normalization constant such that $\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} f(v_x)\,dv_x = 1$ and $k_B$ is the Boltzmann constant]
(a)$A\exp(-mv_x^2/2k_BT)$
(b)$A\exp(-mv_x^2/k_BT)$
(c)$Av_x^2\exp(-mv_x^2/2k_BT)$
(d)$Av_x^2\exp(-mv_x^2/k_BT)$
