20. Energy Review
The total energy of a system consists of the macroscopic energy plus the microscopic thermal energy.
The final energy statement of Chapter 11 was:
The total energy of an isolated system, for which Wext = 0, is constant.
Slide 17-20

21. Energy Transfer by Work
Doing work on a system increases its energy.
Consider lifting a block with a rope at a steady speed.
The rope’s tension is an external force doing work Wext.
Energy transferred into the system goes entirely into the macroscopic potential energy Ugrav.
Slide 17-21

22. Energy Transfer by Work

Slide 17-22

23. Energy Transfer by Heat
Work is energy transferred in a mechanical interaction.
Energy can also be transferred between the system and the environment if they have a thermal interaction.
The energy transferred in a thermal interaction is called heat.
The symbol for heat is Q.

43. Work in Ideal-Gas Processes
Figure (a) shows two different processes that take a gas from an initial state i to a final state f.
The work done during an ideal-gas process depends on the path followed through the pV diagram.
During the multistep process of figure (b), the work done is not the same as a process that goes directly from 1 to 3.
Slide 17-43

44. Heat
In the 1840s James Joule showed that heat and work, previously regarded as completely different phenomena, are simply two different ways of transferring energy to or from a system.
Slide 17-44

45. Heat, Temperature, and Thermal Energy
Thermal energy Eth is an energy of the system due to the motion of its atoms and molecules.
Heat Q is energy transferred between the system and the  environment as they interact.
Temperature T is a state variable that quantifies the “hotness” or “coldness” of a system.
A temperature difference is required in order for heat to be transferred between the system and the environment.

48. 1 food calorie = 1 Cal = 1000 cal = 1 kcal = 4186 J
Units of Heat
The SI unit of heat is the Joule.
Historically, a unit for measuring heat, the calorie, had been defined as:
1 calorie = 1 cal =
the quantity of heat needed to change the temperature of 1 g of water by 1°C
In today’s SI units, the conversion is:
1 cal = J
The calorie you know in relation to food is not the same as the heat calorie.
1 food calorie = 1 Cal = 1000 cal = 1 kcal = 4186 J
Slide 17-49

49. The First Law of Thermodynamics
Work and heat are two ways of transferring energy between a system and the environment, causing the system’s energy to change.
If the system as a whole is at rest, so that the bulk mechanical energy due to translational or rotational motion is zero, then the conservation of energy equation is:
Slide 17-49

50. QuickCheck 17.5
A cylinder of gas has a frictionless but tightly sealed piston of mass M. Small masses are placed onto the top of the piston, causing it to slowly move downward. A water bath keeps the temperature constant. In this process:
Q > 0.
Q = 0.

There’s not enough information to say anything about the heat.
Slide 17-50 50

51. QuickCheck 17.5 Eth = W + Q + – No temperature change
A cylinder of gas has a frictionless but tightly sealed piston of mass M. Small masses are placed onto the top of the piston, causing it to slowly move downward. A water bath keeps the temperature constant. In this process:

There’s not enough information to say anything about the heat.
Eth = W + Q + –
No temperature change
Energy flows out to the water to keep the temperature from changing
Slide 17-51 51 51

52. Three Special Ideal-Gas Processes
For an isochoric process, insert the locking pin so the volume cannot change.
For an isothermal process, keep the thin bottom in thermal contact with the flame or the ice.
For an adiabatic process, add insulation beneath the cylinder, so no heat is transferred in or out.
Slide 17-52

53. Three Special Ideal-Gas Processes
Shown is the first-law bar chart for an isochoric cooling process.
The gas is cooled by allowing heat energy to transfer out of the system to a cooler environment.
The volume of the gas does not change, so no work is done (W = 0).

56. Three Special Ideal-Gas Processes
Shown is the first-law bar chart for an isothermal expansion.
The gas is heated by allowing heat energy to transfer into the system from a warmer environment.
The volume of the gas expands as the pressure drops.
Negative work is done on the gas, and the thermal energy is constant (Eth = 0).
Slide 17-56

57. Three Special Ideal-Gas Processes
Shown is the first-law bar chart for an adiabatic compression.
The gas is compressed by shrinking the volume.
Insulation prevents heat energy from entering or leaving the gas (Q = 0).
Positive work is done on the gas, which increases the temperature.

Slide 17-59 59

60. Temperature Change and Specific Heat
The amount of energy that raises the temperature of 1 kg of a substance by 1 K is called the specific heat c of that substance.
If W = 0, so no work is done by or on the system, then the heat needed to bring about a temperature change T is:
The molar specific heat C is the amount of energy that raises the temperature of 1 mol of a substance by 1 K.
Slide 17-60

Slide 17-66 66

67. Phase Change and Heat of Transformation
A phase change is characterized by a change in thermal energy without a change in temperature.
The amount of heat energy that causes 1 kg of substance to undergo a phase change is the heat of transformation L of that substance.
The heat required for a system of mass M to undergo a phase change is:
Lava—molten rock—undergoes a phase change when it contacts the much colder water. This is one way in which new islands are formed.

78. The Specific Heats of Gases
Processes A and B have the same T and the same Eth, but they require different amounts of heat.
The reason is that work is done in process B but not in process A.
The total change in thermal energy for any process, due to work and heat, is:
Slide 17-78

79. The Specific Heats of Gases
It is useful to define two different versions of the specific heat of gases, one for constant-volume processes and one for constant-pressure processes.
We will define these as molar specific heats because we usually do gas calculations using moles instead of mass.
The quantity of heat needed to change the temperature of n moles of gas by T is:
where CV is the molar specific heat at constant volume and CP is the molar specific heat at constant pressure.
Slide 17-79

R = 8.31 J/mol K is the universal gas constant.

85. Example 17.7 Heating and Cooling a Gas
The figure shows the process on a pV diagram. The gas expands (moves horizontally on the diagram) as heat is added, then cools at constant volume (moves vertically on the diagram) as heat is removed.
Slide 17-85

86. Heat Depends on the Path
Consider the two ideal-gas processes shown.
There’s more area under the process B curve, so the work |WB| > |WA|.
Both values of W are negative as the gas expands.
Thermal energy is a state variable, therefore Eth is the same for both processes, so WA + QA = WB + QB.
This can only be true if QB > QA.
Slide 17-86

87. The First Law of Thermodynamics
An isothermal process is one for which the temperature of a specific amount of gas is held constant (no change in total thermal energy).
An isochoric process is one for which the volume of the gas is held constant.
An adiabatic process is one in which no heat energy is transferred.
Slide 17-87

88. Adiabatic Processes An adiabatic process is one for which: where:
Adiabats are steeper than hyperbolic isotherms, so the temperature falls during an adiabatic expansion, and rises during an adiabatic compression.

103. Convection
Thermal energy is easily transferred through air, water, and other fluids because the air and water can flow.
When the fluid is heated it generally expands and becomes less dense.
Buoyancy then causes the warmer fluid to flow upward, while the cooler fluid sinks to take its place.
This transfer of thermal energy by the motion of a fluid is called convection.
Warm water (colored) moves by convection.
Slide

104. Radiation
All objects emit energy in the form of radiation, electromagnetic waves generated by oscillating electric charges in the atoms that form the object.
This satellite image shows radiation emitted by the ocean waters off the east coast of the United States.
You can clearly see the warm waters of the Gulf Stream, a large-scale convection that transfers heat to northern latitudes.
Slide

105. Radiation
If heat energy Q is radiated in a time interval t by an object with surface area A and absolute temperature T, the rate of heat transfer is:
The parameter e is the emissivity of the surface, a measure of how effectively it radiates.
The value of e ranges from 0 to 1.
