  The interest in the concept of entropic forces has risen considerably since
E. Verlinde proposed to interpret the force in Newton s second law and Gravity
as entropic forces [1]. Brownian motion, the motion of a small particle
(pollen) driven by random impulses from the surrounding molecules, may be the
first example of a stochastic process in which such forces are expected to
emerge. In this note it is shown that at least two types of entropic force can
be identified in the case of 3D Brownian motion (or random walk). This yields
simple derivations of known results of Brownian motion, Hook s law and,
applying an external (non-radial) force, Curie s law and the Langevin-Debye
equation.
