The First Law of Thermodynamics: Internal Energy, Heat, and Work

Показать описание
In chemistry we talked about the first law of thermodynamics as being the law of conservation of energy, and that's one way of looking at it, but physicists like doing math more than chemists do, so let's talk about the first law in terms of an equation. You like equations by now, don't you? You should!

Sometimes hearing the same information from a different person helps very much!

Why couldn’t you have been my professor in college? You explain everything perfectly!

I don't know if I have gotten this all wrong, but isn't the sign convention explained here wrong? 1) Work done by the system- (-w)
2) Work done on the system (+w)
This is what I have learned.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Edit- So this tutorial was for physics, not chemistry. Anyways, it's more interesting to discover that we use different sign conventions in physics.

Professor Dave is definitely still saving educational lives years later with these videos

Great video, one thing you missed that I think is important is if U = q - w or = q + w depending on which subject you're taking. I know that physicists and biomedical engineers use +w.

I swear to study thermodynamics eagerly if he's my professor.Deserves a lot of subscribers and likes.

As always, clear, and most importantly, concise. No wasted words or time. Well done, Professor Dave

Me watching this 5 min shit after studying this for 13 hours straight in a complex way and dreaming about this video to be enough for my exam ....

Awesome visual examples and simplified to absorb the information being released, making understanding and keeping it in so much easier. Thank you, Prof. Dave!

I think I'm dropping thermodynamics

Exhaust stroke & also intake stroke are adiabatic processes because no heat is added or removed in the processes and internal energy reduces in exhaust stroke and internal energy is added in the suction stroke. Accordingly work is done by the system reducing the internal energy in the exhaust process and accordingly work is done on the system to shoot up the internal energy in the suction process.

You're making me fall for thermodynamics.

Thank you so much

***My chemistry teacher has told me +w=work done on system, -w=work done by system

Amazing video! But please specify that this is from physics' point of view. according to chemistry the signs are different. This kind of induces confusion. THANK YOU!
