Presentation Transcript

  1. Chapter 10 Thermal Physics • Temperature and the zeroth Law of Thermodynamics • Thermometers and Temperature Scales • Thermal Expansion

  2. Thermal Physics • What is Thermal Physics? • What is Heat? • What is Thermal Contact? • What is Thermal Equilibrium?

  3. Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics • If objects A and B are separately in thermal equilibrium with a third object, C, then A and B are in thermal equilibrium with each other. • Allows a definition of temperature

  4. Thermometers • What is a thermometer? • A Mercury thermometer • Gas thermometer

  5. Temperature Scales • How does one define a temperature Scale? • The Celsius scale • The Fahrenheit scale • The Kelvin scale

  6. Kelvin Scale • Why do we need this scale? • What is first point? • What is triple point?

  7. Some KelvinTemperatures • Some representative Kelvin temperatures • Note, this scale is logarithmic • Absolute zero has never been reached

  8. Converting Among Temperature Scales

  9. Converting Among Temperature Scales –Example • A pan of water is heated from 25 °C to 80 °C. What is the change in temperature on the Kelvin scale and on the Fahrenheit scale?

  10. Thermal Expansion • What is thermal expansion? • Linear Expansion • Area expansion • Volume expansion

  11. Applications of Thermal Expansion – Bimetallic Strip • Thermostats • Use a bimetallic strip • Two metals expand differently • Since they have different coefficients of expansion

  12. Thermal Expansion – Example • A steel railroad track has a length of 30.00 m when the temperature is 0°C. What is its length on a hot day when the temperature is 40°C?

  13. Thermal Expansion – Example • A hole of cross-sectional area 100.00 cm2 is cut in a piece of steel at 20°C. What is the area of the hole if the steel is heated from 20°C to 100°C?

  14. Unusual Behavior of Water
