The temperature near the surface of the earth is 291 K. Axenon atom (atomic mass = 131.29 u) has a kinetic energy equal tothe average translational kinetic energy and is moving straightup. If the atom does not collide with any other atoms ormolecules, how high up would it go before coming to rest? Assume that the acceleration due to gravity is constant throughoutthe ascent.
