Question: Temperature of a body is only on manifestation of the mean
Options:
A) total mechanical energy of a molecule of the body
B) potential energy of a molecule of the body
C) rotational kinetic energy of a molecule of the body
D) translational kinetic energy of a molecule of the body
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
[d] Mean translational K.E. of any molecule whether monoatomic, diatomic or polyatomic, at a given temperature T is $ \frac{3}{2} $ kT.
