This image was uploaded in the JPEG format even though it consists of non-photographic data. This information could be stored more efficiently or accurately in the PNG or SVG format. If possible, please upload a PNG or SVG version of this image without compression artifacts, derived from a non-JPEG source (or with existing artifacts removed). After doing so, please tag the JPEG version with {{Superseded|NewImage.ext}} and remove this tag. This tag should not be applied to photographs or scans. If this image is a diagram or other image suitable for vectorisation, please tag this image with {{Convert to SVG}} instead of {{BadJPEG}}. If not suitable for vectorisation, use {{Convert to PNG}}. For more information, see {{BadJPEG}}. |
This physics image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with
{{vector version available|new image name}} .
It is recommended to name the SVG file “Ergodic hypothesis w reflecting rays.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter. |

Summary
[edit]DescriptionErgodic hypothesis w reflecting rays.jpg |
English: Rays bounding off a truly smooth surface (a) do not satisfy the ergodic hypotheses, as one would expect of rays under the ergodic hypothesis (b). The impossibility of creating a 'tunnel' that uses reflections to create an imbalance in the particle density between (c) and (d) is a cornerstone of classical thermodynamics. |
