It is pointed out that the model of mutually penetrating ideal charged and neutral gases can be used with particular success to describe the motion of an extremely rarefied plasma. As a simplest instance of application of such a model, the acceleration of totally ionized gases in crossed electric and magnetic fields is considered. It is shown that the general solution of the problem in two limiting cases is either magneto-hydrodynamic or the free charge solution.
