Hi, could I get some help with this micro-macro connection physics problem involving root mean square speed?
The set up is:
For an atom in an ideal gas with rms speed in one direction, vx = 100 m/s, and mass m = 6.66e-27 kg, what is the temperature T in kelvin (K) to four digits of precision if Boltzman constant kB = 1.38e-23 J/K?
Thank you.
In the ideal gas law, why is virtual temperature used instead of temperature?
Is virtual temperature higher or lower than the actual temperature? Why?
If levels 1 and 2 are separated by an energy E2 – E1 such that the corresponding transition frequency falls in the middle of the visible range, calculate the ratio of the populations of the two levels in thermal equilibrium at room temperature and hence interpret the results physically?

I'm also wondering why it matters if the configuration is linear or nonlinear? A triatomic molecule can have a linear configuration, as does CO2 (Figure a), or it can be nonlinear, like H2O (Figure b). Suppose the temperature of a gas of triatomic molecules is sufficiently low that vibrational motion is negligible.
