SCS 110 Exam #2
Work - ANS-product of the force and the distance moved
W=fd

Gravitational potential energy - ANS-Posessed by an object at some height
PEg=mgh

Kinetic energy - ANS-Moving mass
KE=1/2mv^2

Energy - ANS-the most fundamental concept in the present physical theory

Law of conservation of energy - ANS-The amount of energy always remains the same
Total energy initial + work added - dissipated energy = Total energy final

Potential Energy of a Spring - ANS-PEx=1/2kΔx^2

Dissipative forces - ANS-friction and air resistance

Power - ANS-the rate at which a device is delivering of using energy

change in energy divided by the time required

kilowatt - ANS-one kW is 1000 watts

Temperature measurements - ANS-Fahrenheit (°F=9/5°C+32)
Celcius
Kelvin (K=°C+273)

Heat - ANS-that which passes from a hot object to a cold object

measured in calories

ΔQ=mCΔT - ANS-ΔQ=amount of heat put into the object
m=mass in grams
C=heat capacity
ΔT=change in temperature

Heat capacity of water - ANS-1.00 cal/g°c

James Joule - ANS-showed that heat was another form of energy

, KE --> HE - ANS-100% efficiency

Max efficiency - ANS-Max Eff= 1- (Tc/Th)
*Temp is measured in Kelvin

When we start with neat energy, we can NEVER convert 100% of it to other forms of energy.

Count Rumford (Benjamin Thompson) - ANS-disproved caloric

Lord Kelvin (William Thompson) - ANS-1st and 2nd laws of thermodynamics

Carnot engine - ANS-theoretical heat engine that releases cold/waste heat

Carnot Theory - ANS-theory oh hear engines, all has to throw away heat

Practical heat engines and real devices - ANS-old-type steam engine
gasoline internal combustion engine
diesel internal combustion engine
steam turbine
Earth's weather patterns and water cycle

Coulomb - ANS-(C) is the standard metric unit for charge

Voltage - ANS-(v) defined as the work that is actually done in moving a charge from point A to
point B, divided by the size of the mobile charge, q.

measured in volts (v)

Charge - ANS-(q) measured in coulombs

Current - ANS-(i) measured in Amps

Power (P) - ANS-measured in Watts (W)

Electrical Energy (EE) - ANS-measured in Joules (J) or kilowatt hours (KWH)

Electrical devices - ANS-battery (electrochemical cells)
resistors (heating elements)
lamps and light bulbs
photovoltaic cells
motors and generators

Wavelength - ANS-λ
