Thermal PhysicsThermal Physics

• Thermal physics looks at temperature, heat, and internal energy

• Heat and temperature are not the same thing although we use them interchangeably in our everyday language

• Thermal physics looks at temperature, heat, and internal energy

• Heat and temperature are not the same thing although we use them interchangeably in our everyday language

ThermometerThermometer

• A device calibrated to measure the temperature (not heat) of an object

Zeroth Law of ThermodynamicsZeroth Law of Thermodynamics

• AKA the Law of Equilibrium

• 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.

Expressing Thermal ExpansionExpressing Thermal Expansion

• If the thermal expansion of an object is sufficiently small compared with the object’s initial dimensions, then the change in any dimension is proportional to the first power of the temperature change.

Kinetic Molecular Theory of GasesKinetic Molecular Theory of Gases1. A gas consists of small particles (atoms/molecules) that

move randomly with rapid velocities2. The attractive forces between particles of a gas can be

neglected3. The actual volume occupied by a gas molecule is

extremely small compared to the volume that gas occupies.

4. The average kinetic energy of a gas molecule is proportional to Kelvin temperature

5. Gas particles are in constant motion, moving rapidly in straight paths.
