A molecule consists of two atoms each of mass m and separated by a distance d. If K is the average rotational K.E. of the molecule at particular temperature, then its angular frequency is

A

`(2)/(d)sqrt((K)/(m))`

B

`(d)/(2)sqrt((K)/(m))`

C

`2dsqrt((m)/(K))`

D

`(d)/(4)sqrt((m)/(K))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

The M.I. of the molecule `=m((d)/(2))^(2)+m((d)/(2))^(2)`
`therefore" "I=2m((d^(2))/(4))=(md^(2))/(2)`
The Rotational K.E. of the molecule (K) `=(1)/(2)Iomega^(2)`
The Rotational K.E. of the molecule `(K)=(1)/(2)Iomega^(2)`
`therefore omega=sqrt((2K)/(I))=sqrt((2K)/(md^(2))xx2)`
`therefore omega=sqrt((4K)/(md^(2)))=(2)/(d)sqrt((K)/(m))`
