Document Summary
Previous to the class on wednesday we were supposed to have read ch. 1. 1 and 1. 2 from the book, for today the required reading was 1. 3. I read all three prior to today, i will post textbook notes on that information as well. Transfers of energy: heat (q, work (w) De = q + w: : inexact differential. Example of joule"s paddle experiment (1834: work heat weight. State e: e = e2 e1 = w. E = w: q = e w. If we then have a system where heat transfer is allowed . Where q is the heat applied to the system and w is work done on the system: ex. Adiabatic process: no heat transfer, q = 0. Isothermal: constant temperature, t = 0 heat bath = constant t weight. Pv t pv = rt (r = gas constant) w = -podv (work done to the system.
