Abstract
Two simple models of Brownian motion are presented. They are used to examine the circumstances under which the detailed velocity dependence of collisions may be adequately represented by a continuous frictional damping. The differences between the equilibrium velocity distributions predicted by a damping approximation and an exact treatment are discussed.
