Q

Energy transfer between 2 objects takes place if

A

One object exerts a force on the other object and makes it move (one object does work on the other object)

One object is hotter than the other object so energy transfer by heating takes place by conduction convection or radiation (basically when energy is transferred by heating because of a temp difference between 2 objects)

Q

The internal energy of and object due to its temp is sometimes called

However some of the internal energy of an object might be due to other causes eg
An iron bar that is magnetised has more …than if it is.. ,because of the magnetic interaction between the irons bars …

Q

If the internal energy is an object stays constant then either

A

There’s so energy transfer by heating and no work is done

Or
Energy transfer by heating and work done balance each other out

Q

Example of internal energy of object staying constant due to energy transfer by heating and work done balancing each other out:

Internal energy of a lamp filament increases when lamp is switched on because …
Because of this the filament becomes ..
When it reaches its operating temp,energy is …

Work done by electricity supply pushing electrons through filament is …by the energy transfer and light radiated from the …

A

Work is done by electricity supply pushing electrons through the filament

Hot

Transferred to the surroundings by heating and the filament radiates light

Balanced

Filament

Q

First law of thermodynamics

A

( In general when work is done on it by an object and /or energy is transferred by heating)
, The change of internal energy of the object = the total energy transfer due to work done and heating

Q

When the fort las of thermodynamics is applied to an object , the directions of the energy transfers (I.e to or from the object) are very important and determine whether

Q

If temperature Of solid is raised high enough

This happens because

The energy supplied to melt a solid raises the

A

The solid melts

It’s molecules vibrate so much that they break free from each other and the substance loses its shape

Potential energy of the molecules because they break free from each other
