Three vessels $A$,$B$,and $C$ contain gases at the same temperature. Vessel $A$ contains $O_2$ gas,vessel $B$ contains $N_2$ gas,and vessel $C$ contains a mixture of $O_2$ and $N_2$ gases. If the average velocity of $O_2$ in vessel $A$ is $V_1$ and the average velocity of $N_2$ in vessel $B$ is $V_2$,what is the average velocity of $O_2$ in vessel $C$?
