explain the first law of thermodynamics
the heat supplied to a system is used for doing work and changing the temperature (or internal energy) of the system.
meaning of thermodynamics
thermo - heat
dynamics - motion
A crane engine uses 80 000J obtained from diesel burning. it spends 30 000J to lift container. What is the chsnge in internal energy?
U = Q - W
U = 80 000 - 30 000
U = 50 000J
main particles of atom
proton electron and neutron
why do cars have exhaust pipes?
the exhaust system carries harmful gases like carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and unburned hydrocarbons (HC) away from the engine and passenger compartment to ensure safety
is it better to have greater U or smaller U? why?
better to have smaller
because of efficiency
An engine burns 6 kg of fuel and produces 6*106 Joules of useful work in 10 minutes. 24*106 Joules goes to exhaust
what is the useful power of engine?
E = P*t
P =E/t
P = 6*106/600
P = 6*104W
An engine burns 6 kg of fuel and produces 6*106 Joules of useful work in 10 minutes. 24*106 Joules goes to exhaust
How many Joules does fuel give
Etotal = Euseful + Eexhaust
E = 24*106 + 6*106An engine burns 6 kg of fuel and produces 6*106 Joules of useful work in 10 minutes. 24*106 Joules goes to exhaust
How many energy does 1 kg of fuel give?
Etotal/Q = mq
q = E/q
q = 30*106/6
q = 5*106 J/kg
types of processes and examples
reversible and irreversible
main sources of energy
fossil, biomass, nuclear, water, sun and wind
explain the second law of thermodynamics
1) heat can’t flow from colder object towards hotter objects by itself
2) no heat machine can convert all heat into useful work
explain charding method grounding
charges flow by wire from object to ground
the smallest charge
electron -1.6*10-19C
________ when charges shape the space around them forming a field that interacts with other charges
electric field
F=qE
10-6*9*105 = 0.9N
determine the electric field at point P a distance 20cm form the negatively charged particle q = -4*10-6C
E=k|q|/r2
E = 9*109*4*10-6/0.04
E = 900 * 103 = 9*105N/C
what is electric potential?
Find the potential energy of a system of point charges of q1=20*10-6C and q2=-10*10-6C when they are 20cm apart
Ep = 9*109 * (20*10-6)* (-10*10-6)/0.2 =-9J
parts of parallel capacitors
plates and wire
part of device which stores charges
where we use capacitors
computer, phone, cameras
unit of capacitance
Farad [F]
A parallel plate capacitor of capacitace 4*10-6F, carries a charge of 60*10-6C. what if the potential difference between the plates of the capacitor?
C=q/U
U=q/C
U = 60*10-6/5*10-6 = 15V
Electric field starts with _____ ends with ______
positive - negative
