question

According to the free electron gas theory the average kinetic energy, E, of the free electrons in a metal has been shown to be (3/5)E_F where E_F is the Fermi energy of the metal. Use this information to estimate the average speed of the valence electrons in copper. (The Fermi energy of copper is 7eV).
