Sensible Heat The Physics Hypertextbook Fair Use Encouraged up Discussion introduction Heat that results in a temperature change is said to be "sensible" (although this term is falling out of favor). This is because it can be "sensed" I assume. 1781 Wilcke comes up with the concept of specific heats. 1819 Objects have a heat capacity , while materials have a specific heat capacity (often just called specific heat The specific heat of a material is the amount of heat required to change a unit mass of a substance by one unit of temperature.

Same day setup. Please Take our User Survey 15.5 Carnot Cycle Since heat is a form of energy, its conversion to other forms of energy should be possible. The discovery that heat can be converted into mechanical energy was one of the most important cases that let to the Industrial Revolution in the 19th century. The first law of Thermodynamics allows for the conversion of heat energy into mechanical energy in the same amount. However in order to be able to convert heat energy into mechanical energy in a continuous manner it is necessary to restore the working substance in a device called the heat engine. These device converts heat energy into mechanical energy- back to its original state by taking it through a reversible cyclic process. This cyclic process can operate by transferring some amount of the heat energy absorbed. Thus only a part of the heat energy absorbed is found to be convertible into mechanical energy. If some enclosed gas is made to absorb heat isothermally, for example, then it will expand and the work done by the gas can be used as mechanical energy but unless the gas is brought back to its starting condition it cannot continue to convert heat energy into mechanical energy. Now, if it is brought back to its original state by compressing it along the reverse path then obviously the mechanical energy obtained during expansion will have to be spent in converting into heat energy; thus the net amount of mechanical energy obtained will be nil.

Please Take our User Survey 13.3 Mechanical Equivalent of Heat Historical development of Mechanism and Heat lead to different units of measurements for mechanical energy and heat energy. In the last century it was recognized that heat is also a form of energy and it can be converted into mechanical energy and vice versa. From Joule's experiments the correlation between the units of 1 Joule and 1 Calorie was found to be 1 Calorie = 4.18 Joule Therefore, the numerical relation between the amount of work or mechanical energy W (Joule) and amount of heat energy Q (Calorie) can be expressed as where J = 4.18 Joule / Calorie. The constant J is called Mechanical Equivalent of heat. It is also known as Joule's constant.

29. Heat of the interchangeability of heat and work as agents for adding energy to a Mark Zemanskyentitled The Use and Misuse of the Word heat in physics Teaching http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/thermo/heat.html

Heat Heat may be defined as energy in transit from a high temperature object to a lower temperature object. An object does not possess "heat"; the appropriate term for the microscopic energy in an object is internal energy . The internal energy may be increased by transferring energy to the object from a higher temperature (hotter) object - this is properly called heating. Mechanical equivalent of heat Index Heat engine concepts HyperPhysics ... Thermodynamics R Nave Go Back Heat and Work Example This example of the interchangeability of heat and work as agents for adding energy to a system can help to dispel some misconceptions about heat. I found the idea in a little article by Mark Zemansky entitled "The Use and Misuse of the Word 'Heat' in Physics Teaching". One key idea from this example is that if you are presented with a high temperature gas, you cannot tell whether it reached that high temperature by being heated, or by having work done on it, or a combination of the two. To describe the energy that a high temperature object has, it is not a correct use of the word heat to say that the object "possesses heat" - it is better to say that it possesses internal energy as a result of its molecular motion. The word heat is better reserved to describe the process of transfer of energy from a high temperature object to a lower temperature one. Surely you can take an object at low internal energy and raise it to higher internal energy by heating it. But you can also increase its internal energy by doing work on it, and since the internal energy of a high temperature object resides in random motion of the molecules, you can't tell which mechanism was used to give it that energy.

The Open Door Web Site Search Site Map Biology Chemistry Physics Electronics Technology History Study Guide ... Gallery Thermal Physics Heat Engines and the Second Law of Thermodynamics A " heat engine " is a machine which converts internal energy (from a high temperature body) into some other form of energy When the lid on a pan of boiling water is lifted by the steam inside, the internal energy of the steam is being converted to gravitational potential energy of the lid. This is a very simple example of a heat engine. The conversion of energy from some other form of energy to internal energy of a substance can be done with 100% efficiency of conversion. For example, 100J of electrical energy will be converted to 100J of internal energy by a resistor. Conversion of energy from internal energy to some other form cannot be done with the same efficiency.

Gallery Thermal Physics Heat Pumps If a heat engine is operated in reverse , as described above, it has the effect of transferring internal energy from a body at a low temperature to one at a higher temperature . It is then called a “heat pump” (or a refrigerator depending on what it is used for). A heat pump or fridge can be represented by a similar diagram to the one used for the heat engine but with the arrows representing energy flows reversed An explanation of the operation of a fridge requires consideration of cooling caused by evaporation The temperature of a body is a measure of the average kinetic energy of its particles. During evaporation, the molecules which are more likely to "escape" from liquid and become part of the vapour are the ones which have higher than average kinetic energy . Therefore, if you cause the

35. Physics 100: Energy And Power Units energy has a precise definition in physics and engineering even though it for heating,is that the efficiency of converting energy to heat energy is greater http://www.sfu.ca/phys/100/lectures/EnergyUnits.html

Energy and Power: units and definitions I feel obliged to talk about something of everyday importance. Nothing is more important than money,they say, and it takes money to pay our hydro and gas bill. Power and Energy Energy has a precise definition in physics and engineering even though it is used loosely in every day life. Likewise power is defined precisely in spite of its everyday usage which seems almost the same as energy. In fact power is defined as the rate work is done or, saying it another way, the rate of energy transfer or of energy usage. P = Delta-E/Delta-t Thus the units of power in the SI system are joules/second. Power is so common that its unit is called the watt. Thus 1 W = 1 J/s. Electricity is usually measured in kW-h (kilowatt-hours). Because there are 3600 s in one hour 1 kW-h = 3600 kJ = 3.6 MJ. The price of electricity in BC now is $0.06/kW-h. This is extremely cheap by world standards (see The Economist , March 1, 1997, p66 or refer to BC Hydro's web site .). In Japan it costs nearly 3 times as much. Still this is expensive compared to our price of natural gas. Natural gas is now billed in gigajoules. It now costs a little more than $9/GJ. (The gas conversion factor on your gas bill, apx 0.11, converts the gas meter reading, which is in 1000 cu. feet of gas, to GJ. Thus 1 GJ is about 9000 cubic feet of gas or about the volume of this lecture hall.)

Core Unit IV: Heat A. Heat and Temperature Key Concepts The kinetic molecular theory is useful in describing thermal energy, heat, and temperature. Some theories are based on supporting postulates . A postulate is a statement which is agreed on by consensus among scientists. The following are important postulates of the kinetic molecular theory: All matter consists of atoms. Atoms may join together to form molecules. Solids usually maintain both their shape and their volume. Liquids maintain their volume, but not their shape. Gases do not maintain shape or volume. They will expand to fill a container of any size. Molecular motion is random. Molecular motion is greatest in gases, less in liquids, and least in solids. Collisions between atoms and molecules transfers energy between them. Molecules in motion possess kinetic energy. Molecules in gases do not exert large forces on one another, unless they are colliding. As information is acquired in science, new theories can develop, or existing theories can be further supported, modified, or rejected. Many observable phenomena give support to the kinetic molecular theory.

Core Unit IV: Heat Unit Overview Heat and energy transfer were well understood before the kinetic molecular theory was developed. Maximizing efficiency in energy transformations was essential for the development of a highly industrialized society during the industrial revolution. The relationship between heat and temperature, latent heat and specific heat capacity, and the laws of thermodynamics are covered in this unit. It is recommended that excessive emphasis on mathematical relationships be avoided. This is particularly true in the section on thermodynamics, which should be treated descriptively in the Secondary Level Physics program. The main focus throughout the unit should be on a descriptive development of kinetic molecular theory, and on performing investigations which provide a basis for understanding calorimetry. The difference between heat energy and temperature is confusing for some students. This needs to be developed and reinforced carefully in the unit Factors of Scientific Literacy which should be emphasized A1 ........public/private
