I6-31: MOLECULAR MOTION DEMO - BROWNIAN MOTION
- ID Code: I6-31
- Purpose: Model Brownian motion.
- Description: A set of small balls models the air. The balls are set into motion by vibration of the walls. A large mass models a smoke particle which is moved about randomly by collisions with the smaller air molecules. The device must be tilted so that the balls will not stop moving.
