Document Summary

Identify the thermodynamics process for the following situations and plot (a) the initial and final states and (b)the the thermodynamic path for each process on the t-v curve. (a) (b) (c) In this course, we will mostly deal with the following thermodynamic processes: (1) isobaric (constant pressure) (2) isothermal (constant temperature) (3) isochoric (constant volume) By the end of this class, students will be able: to get familiar with the steps to solve a thermodynamics problem. The units for velocity are found by definition: The units for acceleration are found by definition: If the units are wrong, the answer is wrong! A 1500 kg car moving at 20 km/hr is accelerated at a constant rate of 4 m/s2 up to a speed of 75 km/hr. Question: (a) what is the difference between weight and mass? (b) can you explain how the following weight-measuring devices work? http://www. overstock. com/guides/how-to-use-a-bathroom-scale http://www. morgandepot. com/servlet/the-306/ac cu-dsh-weigh-galvanized-scoop-hanging/detail http://www. prlog. org/11904338-6874balance-scale. jpg http://www. enasco. com/c/science/m easurement/spring+scales/
