Question
Internal energy does not include:
Options
A.Rotational energy
B.Nuclear energy
C.Vibrational energy
D.Energy due to gravitational pull
Solution
Internal Energy of a gas consist of (i) kinetic Energy of a gas consist of (i) kineticenergy of gas molecules (ii) potential energy of gas molecules due to intermolecular attractions. It does not include any other from of energy. So , potential energy due to gravitational pull is not included in it.
