15
Thermodynamics Thermal energy, heat, and work are related, and the study of the relationship among them is thermodynamics. Using Thermal Energy Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education
16
Heat and Work Increase Thermal Energy Using Thermal Energy Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education
17
Heat and Work Increase Thermal Energy You increase the energy of a system whenever you do work on that system or heat that system. Using Thermal Energy Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education
18
The First Law of Thermodynamics Using Thermal Energy Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education
19
The First Law of Thermodynamics The energy in a system remains constant, even thought it changes forms. Using Thermal Energy Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education
20
The Second Law of Thermodynamics Energy spontaneously spreads from regions of higher energy to regions of lower energy. Using Thermal Energy Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education
21
Converting Thermal Energy to Mechanical Energy Using Thermal Energy Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education
22
Converting Thermal Energy to Mechanical Energy Heat Engine. Gas converts to thermal energy. Engine transforms thermal energy into mechanical energy by rotating the car’s wheels. Using Thermal Energy Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education
23
Internal Combustion Engines The heat engine in a car is an internal combustion engine in which fuel is burned inside the engine in chambers or cylinders. Each cylinder contains a piston that moves up and down. Each up-and-down movement of the piston is called a stroke. Using Thermal Energy Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education

26
The Human Coolant Your body uses evaporation to keep its internal temperature constant. As you exercise, your body generates sweat. As the sweat evaporates, it carries away thermal energy. Using Thermal Energy Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education
