Abstract

The Ergodic Hypothesis is a hypothesis in Statistical Mechanics that relates the microscopic motion of particles with the macroscopic average, i. e., the observed property. Despite its importance, didactically its understanding is not easy due to technical issues. Therefore, in this article we propose analogies in order to clarify some important features of the referred hypothesis. Our starting point is the perception that the same macroscopic property, i. e., the average of the movement, can be calculated by different procedures. After that, we build the same average in a more convenient way. We do not have as objectives to contemplate advanced implications of the referred hypothesis. On such cases, some papers will be referenced.
