Temperature (T) Cmmn usage: a measure f ht & cld Physics definitin: average KE f mlecules (mre n this next chapter) Physical changes assciated with T: Mst materials expand when heated Pressure f gas (in a clsed cntainer) with T Electrical resistance changes with T Materials radiate at different at different T State f matter change with T Ice water steam
Measuring Temperature/Thermmeter A small amunt f liquid will typically increase in vlume as temperatures rise. Mercury was chsen early n because it s dense; a small vlume can recrd a large temperature range. The pressure f a fixed vlume f gas will rise if temperature rises.

Abslute Zer and the Kelvin Scale (K) A Gas Thermmeter with sufficiently diluted gas (~Ideal Gas)
Abslute Zer and the Kelvin Scale (K) Imprtant Experimental Observatins: 1. P vs. T relatinship is linear fr all dilute gases. 2. All curves extraplate t a single zer pint with zer pressure. These imply There exists a unique abslute zer reference pint and ne can define an abslute temperature scale with it. At this abslute zer pint, Kelvin T Scale (K) TC 273.15 C T K T C 273.15
Thermal Equilibrium Observatin: When tw bjects at different T are brught tgether, they will eventually reach the same temperature and the system reaches an equilibrium state when n further physical changes ccur in the system. e.g. warm sda cans in a cler filled with ice
Thermal Equilibrium Additinal cncepts Heat (mre n this later): the transfer f energy between bjects with different T. Thermal Cntact: tw bjects are in thermal cntact if heat can transfer between them (nt necessary in physical cntact). Thermal equilibrium: the situatin in which tw bjects in thermal cntact cease t exchange energy by the prcess f heat.
The 0 th Law f Thermdynamics N heat flw between A-C and B-C. N heat flw between A-B. Nte: this transitive prperty is nt true fr all physical prcess, e.g. tw pieces f irn with a magnet but the 0 th Law have been shwn t be true experimentally.
Thermal Expansin (linear) Objects such as these railrad tracks will thermal expand when T increases. The size f the change will depend n the material. L L T 0 L L L L (1 T ) 0 0 T T T 0 is the cefficient f linear expansin
Thermal Expansin (vlume) Mlecules can be visualized as spheres cnnected by springs. At a given temperature, these mlecules vibrate accrding t the spring ptential energy. Because f the asymmetry f this ptential energy, the mlecules average separatin tends t increase with T. One can apprx. this vlume expansin by: V V T 0 is the cefficient f vlume expansin
Cefficients f Expansin Ntes: 1. These relatins are apprximately linear in a given range f T nly. & ~ cnstant in T range f interest. 3. Mst substances have & but sme are nt, e.g. water. Typically, 3
