This is not the case here, just having a tub of water with a hole on the bottom in just maintaining the...- enochnotsocool

Graduate The Equipartion principle for diatomic molecules
It is taught that the classical treatment of the diatomic atom would give a heat capacity of $7/2$ due to 7 degrees of freedom, (three translational momentum, two rotational momentum, on vibration momentum and on vibration position). This is based on the Hamiltonian looking like: $$ H =...- enochnotsocool
