4 basic laws of thermodynamics - ANSWERszeroth law: states that 2 objects in thermodynamic equilibrium with a 3rd object are also in equilibrium with each other 1st law: states that neither mass nor energy can be destroyed; only converted from 1 form to another(conservation of energy) 2nd law: states that the entropy of an isolated system can only increase; heat is not transferred from low temp system to a higher temp system one unless additional work is done 3rd law: states that as a temperature approaches absolute 0, entropy approaches a constant minimum; system can not be cooled to absolute 0. compare and contrast heat and temperature - ANSWERsheat: energy transfer from 1 body or system to another due to thermal contact temperature: measurement of an object's stored heat energy mass - ANSWERsmeasures how much of a substance is in an object weight - ANSWERsmeasures the gravitational pull of the earth on an object density - ANSWERsa measure of the amount of mass in a given volume D=m/V volume - ANSWERsmeasures the amount of space taken up specific gravity - ANSWERsmeasures the ratio of a substance's density to the density of water thermal contact - ANSWERsenergy transferred to a body by a means other than work heat - ANSWERsThe energy transferred between objects that are at different temperatures Models for the flow of electric charge - ANSWERsused to explain the flow of electric current, potential, circuits include water, gravity and roller coasters
