Mean free path

Japanese: 平均自由行路 - へいきんじゆうこうろ
Mean free path
Also known as the mean free path. The average distance traveled by particles that collide with each other and move in a zigzag pattern, such as gas molecules and free electrons in metals, from one collision to the next. For gas molecules under standard conditions, the mean free path is about 10(-/) 5 cm. It is an important quantity in the kinetic theory of gases, and the viscosity, thermal conductivity, diffusion coefficient, etc. of gases are related to the mean free path.
