Zeroth law and temperature scales

ZEROTH LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS

Based on the other three laws, zeroth thermodynamics law is formulated. Still, at the time of discovery, lots of confusion occurred about the naming, whether to name it as fourth law or something else. This confusion got sorted as a clear definition of temperature and its occurrence. Hence, it is named Zeroth law of thermodynamics. […]

Young’s modulus

Young’s modulus Young’s modulus can be defined as the property of a given material which can determine the point of its stretching and breaking. Young’s modulus is defined as the ratio of tensile stress to tensile strain. Tensile stress can be defined as the resistance of an object to an external force that could potentially

Yield Strength

Yield strength is a word that refers to the greatest stress that may be created in a material without causing it to deform plastically. Yield strength is a good estimate of a material’s elastic limit. It is defined as the stress point at which a material becomes permanently deformed. The material will bend elastically before

Wien’s law

Wein’s law establishes a link between the wavelength of light with the greatest intensity and the object’s absolute temperature. In other words, Wein’s displacement rule explains why things produce a spectrum of distinct wavelengths at different temperatures. For example, hotter items emit shorter wavelengths, which gives them a reddish hue, but cooler objects emit longer

Thermometer uses

Thermometer The term “temperature” refers to the measurement of heat. However, how do we determine the temperature? A thermometer is a device that is used to measure temperature. It is a device that is used to quantitatively measure the temperature of a system. In this post, we’ll look at how to utilise a thermometer. What

Thermometer Reading Temperature

The temperature of a person’s body varies based on where the measurements are taken on his or her person. For example, rectal temperature readings are typically greater than mouth temperature readings, although armpit temperature readings are typically lower. Factors affecting body temperature The age of a person The time of day, with the lowest levels

Thermodynamics Applications

The science of the link between heat, work, and the properties of substances is known as thermodynamics. Because heat and work are inextricably linked by energy, thermodynamics is defined as the study of energy. Since energy is such an important and necessary component of our lives, we all need to understand thermodynamics. Furthermore, in order

Thermal expansion of solids

We all know that when different substances get exposed to increased heat, they react in different ways. When solids, liquids, or gases undergo some temperature change, their dimensions and volumes also tend to change. Thermal expansion refers to the expansion and growth of the dimensions of solids, liquids, or gases when their temperature undergoes an

Sublimation

Introduction Sublimation is a process in which solid substances are directly converted to the gaseous state, without going through the liquid state. Sublimation is an endothermic interaction that happens at temperatures and pressure under a substance’s triple point in its stage outline, which compares to the most reduced strain at which the substance can exist
