The calculation is unaffected by the nitrogen being diatomic. Despite the larger heat capacity (larger internal energy at the same temperature) of diatomic gases relative to monatomic gases, due to their larger number of degrees of freedom, ${{3RT} \over {M_{\text{m}}}}$ is still the mean translational kinetic energy. Nitrogen being diatomic only affects the value of the molar mass $M = 28 g/mol$ . See e.g. K. Prakashan, Engineering Physics (2001), 2.278.
