Review:
Archimedes' Principle: the weight of displaced water (or fluid) is equal to (but opposite to) the buoyant force.
Bernoulli's Principle: in a narrowing pipe pressure decreases and velocity increases.

23. ρ = m/v

Important Equations:

18. Heat = Change in Energy + Work

19. Temperature in Ferinheight = 9/5 Temperature in Celsius + 32
20. Temperature in Kelvin = Temperature Celsius + 273

21. Pressure x Volume = Number of Moles x Gas Constant x Temperature  
      Gas Constant = 8.314 J/kmol or 0.082 Latm/kmol

22. Specific Heat of Water = 1 calorie/g°C \

MCAT Learning Materials: Lesson 5 Thermodynamics

Let's Begin Thermodynamics:























Review:

1st Law of Thermodynamics (Conservation of Energy): Energy is neither created nor destroyed. See Eq. 18.

2nd Law of Thermodynamics: In a closed system entropy (disorder) always increases.

18. Q = U1 - U2 + W

19. TF = 9/5 TC + 32
20. TK = TC + 273

21. PV = nrt [r = 8.314 J/kmol or 0.082 Latm/kmol]

22. cH2O = 1 calorie/g°C [1 calorie = 4.186 J/g°C]
