Hi all,
Molecules have different degrees of freedom.
So, when I push a wooden block, why doesn't all the energy that I provide via a push contribute to the degrees of freedom of the molecules of wood? ( my hand is also made of molecules, so it's basically molecules dealing with molecules )
Why does the block move at all?
