Chapter 6, Problem 119IAE
A nitrogen molecule (N2) having the average kinetic energy at 300 K is released from Earth's surface to travel upward. If the molecule could move upward without colliding with other molecules, then how high would go before coming to rest? Give your answer in kilometers. [Hint: When the molecule comes to rest, the potential energy of the molecule will be mgh, where m is the molecular mass in kilograms,
