7. Newton s Laws of Motion (abbreviated) orces,, - a push or pull, a vector, lie at the base of these laws. Units N (Newtons) Torque is, O, a force acting at a displacement r O from the axis O that is perpendicular plane of the and r, where, O = r O * ^ = r O * sin. = r O^ * = r O sin *. Units mn O =r = r sin O o O ^ O ro Two Points of View of O 1 st Law If net = 0 on a body, then translational motion remains constant. If the torque Onet = 0 on a body, then rotational motion remains constant. r O ^ = sin ro ro O = r = r sin O^ O ro O o r = r sin O O ro ^ r O Line of Action of ro axis of rotation O o r O slide position physical position 2 nd Law If there is a net acting on a body of mass m, that body has a translational acceleration a, where net = ma.

a. The Laws of riction 1. = N, where is the friction force, N the normal to the surface, the coefficient of friction. 2. riction always acts to oppose actual motion (velocity) or pending motion. 3. riction never exceeds the active net force, net active (the pushes and pulls) or active net torque on the body. 4. There are two types of friction, (1) static (not moving ) where the maximum static friction smax = smax N. (2) kinetic (moving) k = k N. (3) s > k, once net active exceeds smax, k takes over causing a net = smax, k =ma.

The Ideal Gas Macroscopic Description Physics I Overview-eview PV=nT This is the defining equation for the Ideal Gas. It is experimental behave of gases at high temperature and low density. O 2, N 2 the maim gases of air around room and normal pressure (1 atmosphere). This an Empirical Law. P pressure, V volume, T Absolute Temperature K or. DO NOT USE o C or o!!!! n number of moles Universal Gas Constant = 8.31 J/(mol*K) Other Important Numbers Avogadro s Number N A = 6.02x10 23 particles/mole Boltzmann s Constant k B = /N A = 1.38x10-23 J/K The Kinetic Theory of Gases This is a theoretical model that attempts to explain the behavior of the ideal gas in terms of molecular motion. It starts by examining the elastic collision of a molecule with the walls of the container. With a few assumptions yields 1.Pressure is due to the molecules making elastic collisions with the container walls. 2. Temperature is Energy in Thermal Processes Internal Energy U Energy associated with the kinetic energy of all the atoms and molecules in the system and all of interactions between, i.e. electrical, magnetic, and gravitational potential energies and collisions. Heat Q The transfer of energy between a system and its environment due to a temperature difference between them. Units 1 calorie =1 cal = energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water from 14.5 to 15.5 o C 1 British Thermal Units = 1Btu = = energy required to raise the temperature of one pound (lb) of water from 63 to 64 o. 1 Joule J, now by definition 1cal = 4.186 J. Specific Heat C = heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gm of substance by 1 o C cal/(gm o C) = heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of substance by 1 o C J/(kg o C) May 12, 2011 Page 9 of 12

C = Q/(m T) so Q = m C T Latent Heat of usion L f = Energy required to transition a unit mass of a substance between the solid and liquid phases. SOLID -> LIQUID melting LIQUID -> SOLID fusing or freezing. Units: cal/gm J/kg Latent Heat of Vaporization L v = Energy require to transition a unit mass of a substance between the liquid and gas phases. LIQUID -> GAS vaporizing or boiling GAS->LIQUID condensing Units: cal/gm J/kg Energy Transfer Thermal Conduction Transfer by molecular collisions T h > T l P = ka T/x = ka(t h - T l )/ x units watts, Thermal conductivity k J/(s m o C) = Watt/(m o C) T h A T l P Convection transfer of energy by mass move, literally by the movement of matter in convection currents. x adiation transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves. It does not need a medium to travel through as do conduction and convection. Stefan s Law P = Ae(T 4 T o 4 ) watts A is the area of the radiating surface in m 2, Stefan-Boltzmann constant. = 5.669x10-8 watts/(m 2 K 4 ). e emissivity e=1 for black body, the perfect absober. It absorbs all radiation and re-emits it in all directions e=0 for white body, the perfect reflector. It reflects all radiation back into environment from which it came. The Laws of Thermodynamics Here T is always Absolute Temperature, K or The irst Law of Thermodynamics The Internal Energy,U. (See the beginning of Energy in Thermal Processes) U = Q( energy transferred to the system by heat) + W(work done on the system) May 12, 2011 Page 10 of 12

Q( energy transferred to the system by heat) = U + W(work done by the system) U = 0 for a isolated - NO contact with the outside world, Q=W=0. U = 0 for any system that goes through a closed cycle. Thermodynamic or Thermal Processes Adiabatic - Q = 0. So, U = W Isochoric or Isovolumetric - Constant Volume V =0. W =0, U = Q. Isobaric - Constant Pressure, P = 0. W = P V. W = U. Isothermal Constant Temperature, T = 0. U for an ideal gas. So Q = -W Heat Engines and The Second Law of Thermodynamics The figure Engine shows a schematic model of a heat engine. It takes in heat Q H from a high temperature reservoir at temperature T H. It does work on the environment and dumps heat Q C at cool environment at temperature T C. T H Q H Work or a gasoline car engine, the high temperature reservoir is the combustion chamber where the gasoline fuel burns. The cool temperature reservoir is the T C Q C engine outside atmosphere perhaps more accurately, the atmosphere between the engine exhaust and the muffler. A refrigerator is a heat engine run backwards absorbs heat Q C at T C, dumps heat Q H at T H, has work W done on it. (Hence your electric bill $$$) Thermal Efficiency, e is defined as e = Work/ Q H = ( Q H Q C ) / Q H = 1 + ( Q C / Q H ). Note efficiency in general is e = What you want/what it costs. Here you want work, Q H is from what you pay for the fuel. P Adiabatic compression A Isothermalexpansion Isothermal compression D Q H T H Adiabatic expansion B W Q C C TC The Carnot Cycle Carnot Cycle The Carnot Cycle shown in the figure is the cycle of an ideal gas heat engine. 1. It operates at two temperatures, the high temperature reservoir at T H where it absorbs heat Q H,and the low temperature reservoir at T C where it dumps heat Q C. 2. The cycle has four processes. 1. A->B An Isothermal Expansion at temperature T H where the gas absorbs Q H ; 2. B -> C An Adiabatic Expansion (Q=0) from T H to T C ; 3. C -> D An Isothermal Compression at temperature T C where the gas dumps Q C ; 4. D -> A An Adiabatic Compression (Q=0) from T C to T H. V May 12, 2011 Page 11 of 12

A result is that Q H / Q C = T H / T C, or, Q H / T H = Q C / T C = Q / T for all Temperatures. This leads to concept of Entropy S. The efficiency becomes e = 1 - T C /T H for the Carnot Cycle The Second Law of Thermodynamics This law has many statements. or example: 1. No heat engine can be more efficient than the Carnot Cycle. 2. Heat cannot spontaneously flow from a low temperature reservoir to a high temperature reservoir. May 12, 2011 Page 12 of 12
