A molecule consists of two atoms each of mass ' \(\mathrm{m}^{\prime}\) and separated by a distance ' \(\mathrm{d}^{\prime}\). At room temperature the average rotational kinetic energy is 'E', then its angular frequency is

  1. A \(\frac{2}{d} \sqrt{\frac{E}{m}}\)
  2. B \(\sqrt{\frac{m}{E d}}\)
  3. C \(\frac{d}{2} \sqrt{\frac{m}{E}}\)
  4. D \(\sqrt{\frac{E d}{m}}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{2}{d} \sqrt{\frac{E}{m}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(I = 2m \left(\frac{d}{2}\right)^2 = \frac{1}{2}md^2\) \(E = \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2\)
