Final Unit coming up!
HW: Go to The Physics Classroom, Physics Tutorial, Thermal Physics. Read "Temperature and Thermometers," and "What is Heat?" up to 'The Zeroeth Law of Thermodynamics.' Open a note in Notability and answer the following questions:
1. How does The Physics Classroom define temperature?
2. What happens to the volume of liquid in a thermometers when the temperature increases?
3. How is a Celsius thermometer calibrated?
4. Write out a table with the following temperatures in both F and C (you may have to look some up):
a. temp at which water freezes/melts
b. room temperature
c. human body temperature
d. temperature at which water boils/condenses
5. What is the Kelvin scale? How large is a Kelvin degree compared to a Celsius degree?
6. What is absolute zero? What happens at that temperature?
7. What term describes both how coffee cools down and soda (pop!?!?) warms up?
8. What is thermal equilibrium?
