Collision of a Molecule with a Wall

Collision of a Molecule with a Wall. A molecule of mass m strikes the wall ( yz plane) at an arbitrary angle with a speed of u . It is then deflected by the same angle and same speed since the wall of the container is too rigid to move and collision is elastic.

  1. Collision of a Molecule with a Wall A molecule of mass m strikes the wall (yz plane) at an arbitrary angle with a speed of u. It is then deflected by the same angle and same speed since the wall of the container is too rigid to moveand collision is elastic

  2. Collision of Two Molecules of Different Kinds Molecule Awill collide with firstBmolecule but not with second B

  3. Collision Flux Molecules will bombard the wall incessantly. If the area of interest isa unit area, the number of collisions with this unit area in unit time is called the Collision Flux. Collision flux is an important quantity in the investigation of transport properties of fluids.

  4. Effusion Collision with hole will result in the effusion of the gas into vacuum. Rate of Collision=Rate of Effusion

  5. Distribution of Fluid Molecules in a Gravity Field

  6. A Plot of Maxwell Equation at Different Temperatures Since NA is same for all temperatures, areas under the curves are equal. As T goes up curve flattens out and the number of molecules with the most probable speed drops, as expected. Various speeds are also indicated here
