ART. XXIX.--On the Mean Free Path of a Molecule

THE free path of a molecule is dependent on the amount of obstruction it meets with, on the density of the medium. Meyer gives for the mean free path on page 808 of his Kinetische Theorie der Gase, L=1/2N2 Here N is the number of molecules in the unit volume.
