mean free path

Isaac Kremer/ November 23, 2025/ / 0 comments

The average distance a moving particle travels between collisions with other particles. It is a concept from kinetic theory used to describe the behavior of gases and other particles, where a particle moves in a straight line until it collides with another particle, changing its speed and direction. The mean free path is an average value because the actual distance between collisions varies for each particle. (Kremer, 2025)
