Brownian Motions

Java Applet for Brownian Motion

The following calculation model evaluates the trajectories of a varying number of sample particles after they are injected along the centerline between two horizontal parallel plates. The influence of several forces determine the trajectory of the particles.
Instructions
Enter a number for particle diameter in the given text field (in meters), then click the appropriate button to plot the desired result.

Discussion
Describe the dependence of the ensemble of particle trajectories on the diameter.
Obviously, this is a simplified system. What modeling assumptions were made here?
