What is the zeroth law of thermodynamics?
What is the zeroth law of thermodynamics?
The zeroth law of thermodynamics states that if two bodies are in thermal equilibrium with a third body, then they are in thermal equilibrium with each other.
What is the first law of thermodynamics?
What is the first law of thermodynamics?
The first law of thermodynamics states that energy can change from one form to another, but the total amount of energy remains constant. Energy cannot be created or destroyed.
Define thermal equilibrium.
Define thermal equilibrium.
Thermal equilibrium is when two bodies are in contact with each other and there is no heat exchange between them, i.e., the net flow of heat is 0.
