Kinetic Theory
what do you mean by mean free path and write the formula?
In kinetic theory the mean free path of a particle, such as a molecule, is the average distance the particle travels between collisions with other moving particles. The formula still holds for a particle with a high velocity relative to the velocities of an ensemble of identical particles with random locations.

The kinetic energies of a planet in an elliptical orbit about the Sun, at positions A, B and C are KA, KB and KC, respectively. AC is the major axis and SB is perpendicular to AC at the position of the Sun S as shown in the figure. Then
