Particle Speeds and Temperature

Particle Speeds and Temperature

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. Make sure to visit the seond page.

Similar to the applet Maxwellian Velocity Distributions by the same author, but focusing instead on one particle. Great graphics, but I am not sure how enlightening the demonstration really is.
