The Internal energy of 2.30 moles of a certain gas at a temperature of 560°C is found to be 2.39 x 10^4. Determine the number of degrees of freedom of the molecules of this gas.

Engines for propeller-driven aircraft are limited in their maximum rotational speed by the fact that the tip speed of the propeller must not approach the speed of sound in air (mach i). taking 6 ft as a typical diameter for a propeller of a light airplane and 1100 fils as the speed of sound, find the upper limit on the rpm (revolutions per minute) of the propeller shaft.
