Solution
The correct option is B2075J According to law of equipartition of energy, energies equally distributed among its degree of freedom, Let translational and rotational degree of freedom be f1 and f2. Therefore KTKR=32 and KT+KR=U
Hence the ratio of translational to rotational degrees of freedom is 3:2. Since translational degrees of freedom is 3, the rotational degrees of freedom must be 2. Internal energyU=1×(f1+f2)×12RT
