Excerpt from Papers on Mechanical and Physical Subjects, Vol. 3: The Sub-Mechanics of the Universe The system is neither more nor less than an arrangement, of indefinite extent, of uniform spherical grains generally in normal piling so close that the grains cannot change their neighbours, although continually in relative motion with each other; the grains being of changeless shape and size; thus constituting, to a first approximation, an elastic medium with six axes of elasticity symmetrically placed. The diameter of a grain, in c.g.s. Units, is 5534 x O. The mean relative velocities of the grains are 6777 x 10 a The mean path Of the grains is 8612 A.
