In 1995 a research group led by Eric Cornell and Carl Wiemann at the University of Colorado successfully cooled Rubidium atoms to the 20-200 nK temperature range. Assuming (incorrectly) that the Rubidium atoms behave like particles of a classical ideal gas, calculate the RMS speed of a Rubidium atom at a temperature of 144.0 nK. In the experiments one particular isotope of Rubidium was used, Rubidium-87. The molar mass of this isotope is 86.91 g/mol.

Agroup of students is studying convection currents. they fill two identical balloons with the same amount of helium. one balloon is placed in a freezer and the other in an area with warm air. after 10 minutes, the balloons are released from a height of 1 meter. which of the following do the students most likely observe? a. the balloons both rise. the cold balloon is larger than the warm balloon. b. the balloons rise at the same rate. both balloons are the same size. c. the warm balloon expands and rises. the cold balloon shrinks and sinks. d. the cold balloon expands and rises. the warm balloon shrinks and sinks.
