where
N is the total number of particles
m is the mass of the particle
T is the thermodynamic temperature
k is the Boltzmann constant
h is the Planck constant
E is the kinetic energy of a particle,

E= m 2 ( u 2 + v 2 + w 2 ) MathType@MTEF@5@5@+=feaagCart1ev2aqatCvAUfeBSjuyZL2yd9gzLbvyNv2CaerbuLwBLnhiov2DGi1BTfMBaeXatLxBI9gBaerbbjxAHXgarqqtubsr4rNCHbGeaGqipG0dh9qqWrVepG0dbbL8F4rqqrVepeea0xe9LqFf0xc9q8qqaqFn0lXdHiVcFbIOFHK8Feea0dXdar=Jb9hs0dXdHuk9fr=xfr=xfrpeWZqaaeqabiGaciGacaqadmaadaqaaqaaaOqaaiaadweacqGH9aqpdaWcaaqaaiaad2gaaeaacaaIYaaaamaabmaabaGaamyDamaaCaaaleqabaGaaGOmaaaakiabgUcaRiaadAhadaahaaWcbeqaaiaaikdaaaGccqGHRaWkcaWG3bWaaWbaaSqabeaacaaIYaaaaaGccaGLOaGaayzkaaaaaa@41F2@

EM is the inner work function
dN/N represents the probability that a particle has its components within the intervals considered.
