Solved: (a) Calculate the total rotational kinetic energy

Chapter 18, Problem 18.82

(choose chapter or problem)

(a) Calculate the total rotational kinetic energy of the molecules in 1.00 mol of a diatomic gas at 300 K. (b) Calculate the moment of inertia of an oxygen molecule for rotation about either the y- or z-axis shown in Fig. 18.18b. Treat the molecule as two massive points (representing the oxygen atoms) separated by a distance of The molar mass of oxygen atoms is (c) Find the rms angular velocity of rotation of an oxygen molecule about either the y- or z-axis shown in Fig. 18.18b. How does your answer compare to the angular velocity of a typical piece of rapidly rotating machinery
