The mean free time for a molecule in a fluid is the average time between collisions. The mean free path of the molecule is the product of the average speed and the mean free time. [1] These concepts are used in the kinetic theory of gases to compute transport coefficients such as the viscosity. [2] In a gas the mean free path may be much larger ...
In physics, mean free path is the average distance over which a moving particle (such as an atom, a molecule, or a photon) travels before substantially changing its direction or energy (or, in a specific context, other properties), typically as a result of one or more successive collisions with other particles.
In thermodynamics, the free energy difference = between two states A and B is connected to the work W done on the system through the inequality: , with equality holding only in the case of a quasistatic process, i.e. when one takes the system from A to B infinitely slowly (such that all intermediate states are in thermodynamic equilibrium).
Cooking off (or thermally induced firing) is unfired weapon ammunition exploding prematurely due to heat in the surrounding environment. [1] [2] The term is used both for detonation of ammunition not loaded into a weapon, and unintended firing of a loaded weapon due to heating. A fast cook-off is a cook-off caused by fire.
Cook Off! is a 2007 American mockumentary comedy film directed by Cathryn Michon and Guy Shalem. The film was released on November 17, 2017, after being shelved for 10 years. The film was released on November 17, 2017, after being shelved for 10 years.
Chapman–Enskog theory also predicts a simple relation between thermal conductivity, , and viscosity, , in the form =, where is the specific heat at constant volume and is a purely numerical factor. For spherically symmetric molecules, its value is predicted to be very close to 2.5 {\displaystyle 2.5} in a slightly model-dependent way.
Cool Math Games (branded as Coolmath Games) [a] is an online web portal that hosts HTML and Flash web browser games targeted at children and young adults. Cool Math Games is operated by Coolmath LLC and first went online in 1997 with the slogan: "Where logic & thinking meets fun & games.".
Since the velocity of the object is the derivative of the position graph, the area under the line in the velocity vs. time graph is the displacement of the object. (Velocity is on the y-axis and time on the x-axis. Multiplying the velocity by the time, the time cancels out, and only displacement remains.)
