Statement
5.8.4∗. Estimate the probability that the air density in the volume of
part of your room will be twice as high as the usual density. What should be
the volume of this section so that this probability is large enough?
Solution
What should happen is the same number of molecules that are already in
Total of molecules in the room (my bathroom after i take a shower
We need:
Probability of existing in
So final answer is
We can plot
Intereating to notice, that with decreasing of
Explanation in terms of our model is that if we consider a volume less than length of free fly of molecule, there should be all pairs of colliding molesules, so double density.
But much more truthful is the next fact:
The key postulate of thermodynamix say that we consider a system that has many enough partickles, so fluctuations of
