Difference between Mean free path and Transmittance

Mean free path vs. Transmittance

In physics, the mean free path is the average distance traveled by a moving particle (such as an atom, a molecule, a photon) between successive impacts (collisions), which modify its direction or energy or other particle properties. Transmittance of the surface of a material is its effectiveness in transmitting radiant energy.

Similarities between Mean free path and Transmittance

Mean free path and Transmittance have 2 things in common (in Unionpedia): Beer–Lambert law, Cross section (physics).

Beer–Lambert law

The Beer–Lambert law, also known as Beer's law, the Lambert–Beer law, or the Beer–Lambert–Bouguer law relates the attenuation of light to the properties of the material through which the light is travelling.

Cross section (physics)

When two particles interact, their mutual cross section is the area transverse to their relative motion within which they must meet in order to scatter from each other.

Mean free path and Transmittance Comparison

Mean free path has 60 relations, while Transmittance has 20. As they have in common 2, the Jaccard index is 2.50% = 2 / (60 + 20).
