Course Description

Overview

Explore the fundamental principles of thermodynamics in this comprehensive lecture from Yale University's Fundamentals of Physics course. Begin by understanding the concept of temperature as a macroscopic thermodynamic property and learn about Zeroth's law. Discover key concepts such as absolute zero and the triple point of water, and examine various temperature measurement scales and instruments. Delve into the properties of heat and heat transfer, including specific heat, phase changes, and methods of heat transfer like radiation, convection, and conduction. Gain insights into the atomic nature of heat as kinetic energy and its measurement. This 71-minute lecture provides a solid foundation in thermodynamics, essential for students of physics and related fields.
