Kinetic Theory - This Java applet simulates a 2 dimensional gas of
hard spheres. It illustrates several important concepts in statistical
mechanics/kinetic theory. |
|
Kinetic Theory - In this experimental module you will be working with
particles inside a balloon that is at constant volume (unless you pop it).
This simulation has opened in a separate window from the text you are
reading. This applet is designed to demonstrate what the concept of
temperatures is, how pressure is related to temperature under conditions
of fixed volume and how the distribution of particle speeds depends on the
temperature. |
