Estimate the average thermal energy of a helium atom at the temperature of 10 million Kelvin (the typical core temperature in the case of a star).

उत्तर
At temperature, T = 107 K
Average thermal energy `= 3/2` kT
`= 3/2 xx 1.38 xx 10^(-23) xx 10^7`
= 2.07 × 10–16 J
Hence, the average thermal energy of a helium atom at the core of a star is 2.07 × 10–16 J.
