Again with the Force

What about the initial kinetic energy of the molecules? It depends on the temperature, but where did it come from, and how is it maintained?

SEE MY FIRST POST MORAN. I OWNED THIS THREAD.

Let me quote your first post for you. I'll emphasize some key words:

Whichever force gave them kinetic energy in the first place; probably the Sun would be the answer on Earth. This is caused by a combination of gravity and strong and weak nuclear forces.

Now you say there is no force:

[ QUOTE ]
What force is primarily responsible for diffusion?

[/ QUOTE ]
No force is responsible for it.... No force is required. The electromagnetic force (or any for that matter) HINDERS and is NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR their movement.

So which is it?

[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ]
To get molecules in motion in the first place and then to keep them in motion requires some sort of interaction (force)

[/ QUOTE ]

NO.

[/ QUOTE ]

Are you saying that this statement, on its own, is wrong?

[ QUOTE ]
Once the [censored] are at room temperature they have kinetic energy, and they fly out in all directions.

[/ QUOTE ]

How do they arrive at room temperature? Are you going to refer me to your first post again?

Feel free to disagree, but please do it without calling me names. Judging by the poll responses, lots of people are confused by this question. Spewing venom doesn't help.
