The critical point is the unique point on the original van der Waals isotherms (before the Maxwell construction) where both the first and second derivatives of P with respect to V (at fixed T) are zero. Use this fact to show that: V_c = 3Nb, P_c = (1/27) (a/b2), kT_c = (8/27) (a/b).
Show that none of the principal moments of inertia can exceed the sum of the other two.
