Image:Maxwell Dist-Inverse Speed.jpg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Summary

This graph shows the Maxwell distribution of helium atom speeds at 5500 kelvin. The speeds are shown as inverse speed so one can more easily compare this shape to that of a Planck curve. In this graph, the left end of the X-axis represents higher energies and higher speeds.    Greg L 03:14, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
