PHYSICS - UNIT 8
THERMODYNAMICS
Skills
Describe how temperature and specific heat are related to the molecular level of matter.
Contrast and give examples of thermal energy transfer: conduction, convection, radiation.
Explain everyday examples that illustrate the laws of thermodynamics - including conservation and entropy.
Physics 6(E)
Describe how the macroscopic properties of a thermodynamic system such as temperature, specific heat, and pressure are related to the molecular level of matter, including kinetic or potential energy of atoms.
Physics 6(F)
Contrast and give examples of different processes of thermal energy transfer, including conduction, convection, and radiation.
Physics 6(G)
Analyze and explain everyday examples that illustrate the laws of thermodynamics, including the law of conservation of energy and the law of entropy.
