AP EAMCET · PHYSICS · Kinetic Theory of Gases

If the average translational kinetic energy of a molecule in a gas is equal to the kinetic energy of an electron accelerating from rest through \(10 \mathrm{~V}\), then the temperature of the gas molecule is
\[
\left(\text { Boltzmann constant }=1.38 \times 10^{-23} \mathrm{JK}^{-1}\right)
\]

  1. A \(7.73 \times 10^3 \mathrm{~K}\)
  2. B \(730 \mathrm{~K}\)
