Question

calculate number of degree of freedom in diatomic gases​ ,please answer

Answer 1

The degrees of freedom of the system is given by:- f = 3 N – K

Where, f = degrees of freedom

N = Number of Particles in the system

K = Independent relation among the particles

For Diatomic gases ; N = 2 and K = m1

f = 3 N – K

f = 3 * 2 - 1

f = 5.
