THE difficulty of reconciling line spectra with the kinetic theory of gases, has been referred to by Prof. Fitzgerald (NATURE, January 3, p. 221). The following considerations show that it is ...

Recent investigations have made the kinetic theory of fluids one of the most vital branches of theoretical physics. Experimental progress has gone hand in hand with the development of theory.

The kinetic particle model explains the properties of the different states of matter. Particles in solids, liquids and gases have different amounts of energy. The particles are arranged ...

The kinetic theory model can be used to explain the properties of solids, liquids and gases by considering the molecules they are made from and their motion. For gases, the kinetic theory model ...
