There are 800 green
molecules in the top
section that initially
have a velocity of 10
and a mass of 5. There
are 800 blue molecules
in the bottom section
that initially have a
velocity of 5 and a
mass of 5. The wall
seperating the
molecules is
completely removed.
(634 k)
The first plot on the right shows
how many molecules
are on there initial
side of wall. Notice
that the faster moving
green molecules reach
equilibrium more
quickly than the blue
molecules. The second
plot shows the average
energy of each color
of molecule.
