PPT-Kinetic Effects in the Magnetosphere

Richard E Denton Dartmouth College What Do We Mean by Kinetic Effects Related to kinetic theory but more general Kinetic theory is a description of a plasma using a phase space distribution In a phase space distribution there is assumed to be a smooth distribution of particles with respect to spatial position and velocity.

Solar wind constantly collides with Earth’s magnetic field creating a cavity. Extends about 15-25 Earth radii in different directions. Protects life on earth from harmful radiation. Pg. 171 - 176. Kinetic Energy. Recall:. A moving object has the ability to do work because it can apply a force to another object and displace it. The energy possessed by moving objects is called . kinetic energy (. Do You Know the Difference?. Continue. Home. Which energy type?. An airplane circling in preparation for a landing.

Energy of motion. Kinetic theory of gases. Assume molecules are point masses (possess mass but no volume). Potential Energy. Definition: The stored energy resulting from the relative positions of objects in a system. Potential energy is measured in Joules . 1 joule = 1 kg•m²/s². Ex. An apple is hanging from the branch of a tree. The energy that could potentially do work on the apple results from its position above the ground. To the Student. What You Will Do and Learn.
