Write a basic physics essay about either, energy, temperature, or specific heat.
It should be two pages in length.
1- brief introduction.
2-discussion.
3-brief conclusion.
1. Energy - Define work and energy; kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy, (total) energy, Law of Conservation of Energy (statement and use of (e..g., when drop object, etc.)); spring potential energy, internal energy, energy transformation, energy transfer(
2. Temperature (T) (the five states of matter (motion of molecules in); molecular kinetic energy (KEmo(), T a measure of KEmoi ,T a measure of average speed of a molecule; T vs. internal energy; T vs. heat; temperature scales, absolute zero; specific heat(
3. Specific Heat (c) (internal energy, heat; define c ; large c vs. small c ; values of c for common substances. compare cwater and cfron: add 1 cal to 1 gm of water vs. add 1 cal to 1 gm of iron; predict temperature change when adding given amount of heat to given mass of certain substance: Q = me AT (meanings of symbols, example of use)
