7.1 Heat and the Laws of Thermodynamics
SLIDE 4 Heat is energy that flows from an object and can increase the temperature
cooler. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of that
SLIDE 5
The particles in a substance are always moving – even in a solid. The temperature at which the motion of the particles stops is called absolute zero, or 0 Kelvin, though it has never been reached by any substance.
SLIDE 6
There are three common methods of heat transfer: 1) Radiation 2) Convection 3) Conduction
SLIDE 7
SLIDE 8
Different materials have different capacities for storing energy. It takes water 20 minutes to heat to 75 degrees, 2 minutes for copper to reach the same temperature. Water stays hotter longer – it holds the heat.
SLIDE 9 The measure of this ability to store energy is called specific heat. (the
- amt. of energy to raise 1g
by 1 degree C)
SLIDE 10 The specific heat of water is 4.2 J/(g x Co). What mass
- f water will be heated by
10 degrees when 840J of heat is added?
Q = cmΔT
Q – heat added c – specific heat m – mass ΔT – change in temperature
SLIDE 11
The specific heat of water is 4.2 J/(g x oc). What mass of water will be heated by 10 degrees when 840J of heat is added? Q = cmΔT Q / (cΔT ) = m (840J) / (4.2 J/(g x oC) x 10oC = m = 20g
SLIDE 12
The laws of thermodynamics explain the relationship between heat and energy in the universe. There are four laws we will discuss.
SLIDE 13
1) The law of conservation of matter and energy – matter and energy can neither be made nor destroyed 2) The law of entropy – whenever energy is exchanged in a process, some energy becomes unavailable for use
SLIDE 14
3) The law of absolute zero – absolute zero cannot be attained by any system 0) The zeroth law – whenever two bodies are in contact, they will move toward a state of thermodynamic equilibrium where both are at the same temperature
SLIDE 15
7.2 States of Matter, Density, and Gravity
SLIDE 16 All matter has physical properties that can be
exists in one of four fundamental states, or phases: solid, liquid, gas, or plasma.
SLIDE 17
Solid – definite volume and shape, strong attractions Liquid – definite volume, no definite shape Gas – no definite volume, no definite shape, weak attractions
SLIDE 18
SLIDE 19
Ideal Gas Law PV = nRT P – pressure V – volume n – amount of gas R – gas constant T – temperature of the gas
SLIDE 20
Pressure and volume are proportional to temperature, assuming nR is constant. Pressure and volume are inversely proportional to each other – if one goes up, the other must drop
SLIDE 21
Important Temperatures Melting point – solid to liquid Freezing point – liquid to solid Boiling point – liquid to gas Heat of fusion – melt 1 kg of solid Heat of vaporization – 1 kg liquid to gas Condensation – gas to liquid Evaporation – liquid to gas
SLIDE 22
Density is a measure of matter per units of volume. D = m/v
SLIDE 23 Pressure is a measure of force per units of area. Pressure in a gas can impact it’s density, as a gas will always spread,
container it is in. (liquids and solids are less responsive to pressure)
SLIDE 24 The force of gravity (F) is a measure of both mass(m) and pressure. The weight of an object is a function of the mass and the pull of gravity upon it. The force of gravity (F) = Mass (m) x acceleration caused by gravity (g)
F = mg
SLIDE 25 The acceleration caused by gravity is 9.8m/s2 The weight of an object = mg A falling object will continue to accelerate until the force
- f air resistance equals the
acceleration due to gravity – a point called terminal
- velocity. This is independent
- f the weight of the object.
SLIDE 26
7.3 Classical Mechanics and Relativity
SLIDE 27 Mechanics is the study of
Classical mechanics studies objects larger than atoms but slower than light.
SLIDE 28
SLIDE 29 Newton’s Laws of Motion: 1) Law of Inertia – an
motion) will stay at rest (or in motion) until acted upon by another object or force
SLIDE 30 Newton’s Laws of Motion: 2) Law of Force vs. Mass – the rate of change of an
its mass and the force acting upon it, or F = ma
SLIDE 31
Newton’s Laws of Motion: 3) Law of Action and Reaction – interactions between two objects produces two forces that are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction
SLIDE 32
SLIDE 33 Work – movement of mass
Speed – rate of change of distance traveled (s=d/t) Displacement – change in position, noting the starting point and the end point (not always = distance) Velocity – rate of change of displacement (v = d/t)
SLIDE 34
Friction – rubbing motion that acts against motion between two touching surfaces Acceleration – rate of change of velocity (a=v2-v1/t2-t1) Momentum – product of mass and velocity Force – push or pull exerted
SLIDE 35
Si Units – International System Mass – kilograms Length – meters Time – seconds Volume – liters
SLIDE 36
SLIDE 37
Einstein’s theory of relativity summed up states 1) The speed of light is constant 2) The laws of physics are the same for all inertial frames of reference E = mc2
