Indicates a review question, which means it requires only a basic understanding of the material to answer. Questions without this designation typically require integrating or extending the concepts presented thus far.) Air molecules in a warm room (27°C = 300 K) typically have speeds of about 500 m/s (1,100 mph). Why is it that we are unaware of these fast-moving particles continuously colliding with our bodies?

Questions without this designation typically require integrating or extending the concepts presented thus far.) . When two trains, going in opposite directions, are passing on tracks that are laid out close together, the train cars can often be seen to be leaning in toward one another where they are in proximity. How might the air passing through the narrow gap separating the two trains contribute to the observed attraction between their cars?
