mean translational kinetic energy
|
(Definition)
|
|
|
The mean translational kinetic energy is a result from the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution and is given by
 ( 1)
A more useful form of this equation is in terms of temperature. Temperature is brought in through the root mean square speed derived in the kinetic thoery of gases
