B Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution under the influence of a gravitational field

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on finding a simple video that illustrates the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution in a gravitational field to explain pressure gradients. The original poster expresses frustration with trying to convince a flat Earth proponent of these concepts. Respondents highlight the challenge of communicating scientific ideas to those with opposing views. Despite the skepticism, there is a request for resources that effectively demonstrate the Boltzmann distribution in a gravity well. The conversation underscores the difficulty of engaging with individuals who hold firmly to alternative beliefs.

Could anyone suggest a simple video showing the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution under the influence of a gravitational field?
I trying to show a flat earther idiot how pressure gradients arise in a simple manner.

Thank you all.

Wasting your time.
The other guy will always have a "Yeah, but... "
 
I think you are probably correct. What a sad state of affairs! None the less do you know of any video which would be simple enough to just basically show Boltzmann distribution in gravity well?
