The oxygen molecule has a mass of 5.30 × 10' -26 kg and a moment of inertia of 1.94 × 10-46 kg m? about an axis through its centre perpendicular to the lines joining the two atoms. Suppose the mean speed of such a molecule in a gas is 500 m/s and that its kinetic energy of rotation is two-thirds of its kinetic energy of translation. Find the average angular velocity of the molecule.
Let's consider the three atoms composing the molecule now have different masses and coordinate, while the axis of rotation is still y axis. The first atom has a mass of 9.199 kg, with x coordinate at 3.655 m and y coordinate at 8.442 m. The second atom has a mass of 41.619 kg, with x coordinate at 76.902 m and y coordinate at 57.706 m. The third atom has a mass of 39.818 kg, with x coordinate at 39.495 m and y coordinate at 25.9 m. What is the moment of inertia in unit of kg m2 with respect to the y axis?
