According to equipartition law of energy each particle in a system of particles have thermal energy E equal to

A

`E=k_(B)T`

B

`E=(1//2)k_(B)T`

C

`E=3k_(B)T`

D

`E=(3//2)k_(B)T`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
From law orf equipartion of energy for any system in thermal equlibrium, the total energy is equally distibuted among its various degree of freedom and each degree of freedom is associated with energy `(1//2)k_(B)T.`
