Section 2 Notes: Kinetic Energy and Temperature Kinetic energy (KE)- Energy of movement Temperature- A measure proportional to the average kinetic energy of a substance. –higher temperature = higher kinetic energy –The more kinetic energy the quicker the molecules are moving around
25
Click on the diagram to be taken to the page
26
Draw a picture representing molecular motion of three identical molecules at these two temperatures
28
Section 3 Notes: Internal Energy vs. Heat Internal energy (U)- Sum of the molecular energy –kinetic energy, potential energy, and all other energies in the molecules of a substance. –Unit: Joule Heat (Q) is energy in transit –energy flows from a hot to a cold substance. –Unit: Joule An object never has “heat” or “work” only internal energy (heat is transferred and work is done)
29
Heat is energy in transit Heat lost by one object equals heat gained by another Heat lost = Heat gained -Q A = Q B
30
Heat transfers from hot to cold (a)Holding a hot cup (b)Holding a cold glass (heat leaving your hand feels cold)
31
The coffee looses 468J of heat. How much heat does Bob gain? (assuming no heat was lost to the surroundings) The same: Bob gained 468 J of heat Example 3
32
–Direction: From high temperature to low temperature –Rate of transfer depends on temperature difference: The greater temperature difference the greater the energy transfer T water = 20º C T can = 15º C T water = 35º C T can = 5º C
34
Example 4 Where would the greater energy transfer take place and which way would the energy transfer? A.Ice = 0 ºC Juice = 20 ºC B.Ice = 0 ºC Juice = 25 ºC B. has a bigger temperature difference and therefore greater energy transfer. Energy transfers from hot to cold: Juice to Ice
35
What happens when the temperature inside and out are equal? T water = 11º C T can = 11º C
36
Heat is transferred until there is thermal equilibrium Thermal Equilibrium- When temperatures are equal and there is an even exchange of heat T water = 11º C T can = 11º C
37
Section 4 Notes: Heat Transfer Types of Heat Transfer: –Conduction –Convection –Radiation
38
Conduction- Caused by vibrating molecules transferring their energy to nearby molecules. Not an actual flow of molecules. heat transfer
39
Thermal conductors- rapidly transfer energy as heat Thermal insulators- slowly transfer energy as heat
40
Challenge Put the following in order of most thermally conductive to least. Copper, Wood, Air, Water, Concrete 1 2 3 4 5
41
1. Copper 2 Concrete 3. Water 4. Wood 5. Air
42
Convection- process in which heat is carried from place to place by the bulk movement of a fluid (gas or liquid). Examples
43
Radiation (electromagnetic radiation) – Reduce internal energy by giving off electromagnetic radiation of particular wavelengths or heated by an absorption of wavelengths. Ex. The UV radiation from the sun making something hot. Absorption depends on the material.
44

Section 5: Laws of Thermodynamics
52
A System System- A collection of objects upon which attention is being focused on. This system includes the flask, water and steam, balloon, and flame. Surroundings- everything else in the environment The system and surrounding are separated by walls of some kind. System Surroundings
53
Walls between a system and the outside Adiabatic walls- perfectly insulating walls. No heat flow between system and surroundings.
54
In a system: How can you measure the quantity of heat entering or leaving? Q = Δ UorQ = U f – U 0 Q: The quantity of heat that enters or leaves a system U 0 : Initial internal energy in system U f : Final internal energy in system If Q is positive then energy entered the system If Q is negative then energy left the system This is directly related to temperature. –If the system gets colder then heat left –If the system gets warmer then heat entered
55
Example 5 The internal energy of the substance is 50 J before The internal energy of the substance is 145 J after a) How much heat was transferred in this system? b) Did it enter or leave?
56
First Law of Thermodynamics: –Conservation of energy applied to thermal systems. –Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It can only change forms –Stated in an equation ΔU = Q + W
57
First Law of Thermodynamics: Conservation of Energy ΔU = Q + W –Internal Energy (U) (positive if internal energy is gained) –Heat (Q) (positive if heat is transferred in) –Work (W) (positive if work is done on the system) –The unit for all of these is the Joule (J)
58
Example 6 & 7 6. A system gains 1500 J of heat from its surroundings, and 2200 J of work is done by the system on the surroundings. What is the change in internal energy? 7. A system gains 1500 of heat, but 2200 J of work is done on the system by the surroundings. What is the change in internal energy?
59
6. A system gains 1500 J of heat from its surroundings, and 2200 J of work is done by the system on the surroundings. What is the change in internal energy? 7. A system gains 1500 of heat, but 2200 J of work is done on the system by the surroundings. What is the change in internal energy? 1500 - 2200 1500 + 2200 Example 6 & 7
60
Now how can you tell if work is done by or on a system? Is work done on or by the system ? a)nail/wood system b) Bunsen burner, flask, balloon system
61
Work is done by the man causing frictional forces between the nail and the wood fiber. Work increases the internal energy of the wood and nail. Work done on a system: Work to Internal Energy
62
Work done by a system: Internal Energy to Work The balloon expands doing work on its surroundings The expanding balloon pushes the air away
63
Work done on or by a gas Volume must change or no work is done. On a gas- Volume decreases (work must be done to force molecules into a smaller area) By a gas- Volume increases (the pressure of the gas causes the volume to increase)
64
Section 5 Notes 4 Common Thermal Processes Isobaric Process Isochoric process (isovolumetric) Isothermal process Adiabatic process Each will have their own assumptions
65
4 Thermal Processes Isobaric Process – occurs at constant pressure ΔP = 0
66
4 Thermal Processes Isochoric process (Isovolumetric) – one that occurs at constant volume. ΔV = 0 and therefore W = 0
67
Thermal Processes Isothermal process – one that occurs at constant temperature T (temperature) directly relates to U (internal energy) ΔU = 0
68
Thermal Processes Adiabatic process – on that occurs with no transfer of heat ΔQ = 0
69
Look for these terms in questions since they assume givens Isobaric Process ΔP = 0 Isochoric process ΔW = 0 Isothermal process ΔU = 0 Adiabatic process ΔQ = 0
70

77
Section 6: Three Laws of Thermodynamics
78
First Law of Thermodynamics 1.Energy can neither be created nor destroyed Energy Conservation: Conservation of energy applied to thermal systems.. It can only change forms When heat is added to a system, it transforms to an equal amount of some other form of energy. Equation: ΔU = Q + W (work is done on a system)
79
Second Law of Thermodynamics 2.Entropy in a system increases over time. Entropy- Measure of randomness or disorder in a system This occurs even when a system is left untouched. Other parts of the second law of thermodynamic Heat goes from hot to cold. No cyclic process is 100% efficient it can’t convert heat entirely into work Some energy will always be transferred out to surroundings as heat.
80
Third Law of Thermodynamics 3. absolute zero cannot be reached As a system approaches absolute zero, all processes cease and the entropy of the system approaches a minimum value. A theoretical impossibility –If it occurred everything would stop and there would be no more entropy
81
Section 7: Transformation of energy in a heat engine
82
The Heat Engine –a device that used a difference in temperature of two substances to do mechanical work –It transferring energy from a high-temperature substance (the boiler) to a lower temperature substance –For each complete cycle: W net = Q h - Q c What the variables stand for here: Q h = Heat from high temperature substance Q c = Heat to low temperature substance W or work equals the difference of Q h and Q c
83
The Heat Engine How it works: main points There will be an area of high temperature (boiler) and an area of low temperature Heat wants to go from a high temperature to a low temperature. Work is done by capturing energy in the transfer and using it to do work The work done by the engine equals the difference in heat transferred from the hot to cold substance.
84
The Heat Engine –For each complete cycle: Work = Energy transferred as heat from the high temperature substance to the colder temperature substance What the variables stand for here: Q h = Heat from high temperature substance Q c = Heat to low temperature substance W or work equals the difference of Q h and Q c

Types of Nuclear Reactions Natural transmutation – Uranium spontaneously decays Artificial transmutation – bombardment of a stable isotope to force it to decay
150
Question 4 Balance the reaction after the following artificial transmutation.
151
Types of Nuclear Reactions Artificial transmutation First done by Earnest Rutherford When the bullets are positively charged, they are repelled by the nucleus they are bombarding. To overcome the repulsions, they must be accelerated to very high speeds by particle accelerators.
152
Nuclear Fission Nuclear fission - Heavy nuclei are bombarded with neutrons and split. plus a tremendous amount of energy
153
Nuclear fission Mass of particles produced is slightly less than the mass of the reactants. This mass is converted into energy. (E=mc 2 )
154
Nuclear fission is a chain reaction. Neutrons are needed to start and released as a product which can start more reactions. Critical mass: minimum mass of fissionable material required for a chain reaction.
155
Problems with Fission Nuclear fission produces radioactive waste that has a large half life. U-235 Uranium 235 –Half life of U-235 is 713 million years We cannot get rid of this dangerous product so we store it away from anything it can harm. –We deeply bury Meltdown if cooling system fails the reactor can overheat and melt releasing radioactive materials
156
Nuclear fusion – combination of small nuclei into larger with release of energy. Mass of particles produced is much less than the mass of the reactants. This mass is converted into energy. (E=mc 2 ) Can release up to 10 times that of fission Occurs naturally in our sun and other stars Does not give off radioactive waste
157
Problems with Fusion Fusion requires high temperatures like those in the stars. We cannot sustain these temperatures without vaporizing the container of the fusion reaction. Today many are looking into ways of making fusion work under sustainable conditions
