Kinetic Theory of Gases and Equipartition Theorem

. Results of Kinetic Theory. KE of individual particles is related to the temperature of the gas:? mv2 = 3/2 kTWhere v is the average velocity.. Boltzmann Distribution. Demonstrated that there is a wide range of speeds that varies with temperature.. Equipartition of Energy. The Kinetic Theory result tells us that the average translational KE is proportional to the temperature.Types of allowed motion are referred to as Degrees of Freedom (DOF)Linear motion in three directions (x,y,z) is three DOF..
