In a gas at (absolute) temperature t, the molecules have a typical kinetic energy of 3kbt/2, where kb is boltzmann’s constant.
derive an expression for the thermal debroglie wavelength, a typical value for the debroglie wavelength λ of a molecule in the gas.
for helium atoms, calculate the debroglie wavelength at room temperature and at the boiling point of helium, and compare each number with the typical distance between the particles in each state.
comment on when we will need to use quantum mechanics in understanding the behavior of helium.

Asolid cylinder and a cylindrical shell have the same mass, same radius, and turn on frictionless, horizontal axles. the cylindrical shell has light-weight spokes connecting the shell to the axle. a rope is wrapped around each cylinder and tied to blocks of equal masses that are held the same height above the ground. both blocks are released simultaneously. the ropes do not slip. which block hits the ground first? or is it a tie?
