Particle model of ideal gas

  1. This java simulation use 200 particles to simulate the particle of ideal gas. Each particle has the same speed moving in random direction. Piston will move doen due to the gravity and move up because collision from particles.
  2. You can change the velocity and pressure with the slider bar
Try to estimate the number of partcle per cubic centermeter and compare to the number of particle in this simulation. Explain why the volume in the simulation is changing all the time.
