Radiation
Nearly all objects emit energy through

(0-1) T temperature (K) P energy radiated per
second. If an object is at Temperature T and its
surroundings are at T0, then the net energy
gained/lost is P?Ae(T-To)4

Ideal absorber (black body) e1 all energy is
absorbed also ideal radiator!
Ideal reflector e0 no energy is absorbed

A BBQ
The coals in a BBQ cover an area of 0.25m2. If
the emissivity of the burning coal is 0.95 and
their temperature 5000C, how much energy is
radiated every minute?

Thermodynamics (chapter 12)
Piston is moved downward slowly so that the gas
remains in thermal equilibrium The temperature
is the the same at all times in the gas, but can
change as a whole.

Isobaric compression
Lets assume that the pressure does not change
while lowering the piston (isobaric compression).

Non-isobaric compression
In general, the pressure can change when lowering
the piston.
The work done on the gas when going from an
initial state (i) to a final state (f) is the
area under the P-V diagram. The work done by
the gas is the opposite of the work done on the
gas.

In which case is the work done on the gas largest?
The area under the curves in cases B and C is
largest (I.e. the absolute amount of work is
largest). In case C, the volume becomes larger
and the pressure lower (the piston is moved up)
so work is done by the gas (work done on the gas
is negative). In case B the work done on the gas
is positive, and thus largest.

First Law of Thermodynamics
By performing work on an object the internal
energy can be changed
Think about deformation/pressure
Think about heat transfer
By transferring heat to an object the internal
energy can be changed
The change in internal energy depends on the
work done on the object and the amount of heat
transferred to the object.
Remember the internal energy is the energy
associated with translational, rotational,
vibrational motion of atoms and potential energy

First law examples 1) isobaric process
A gas in a cylinder is kept at 1.0x105 Pa. The
cylinder is brought in contact with a cold
reservoir and 500 J of heat is extracted.
Meanwhile the piston has sunk and the
volume changed by 100cm3. What is the change in
internal energy?
14
First Law examples 2) Adiabatic process
A piston is pushed down rapidly. Because
the transfer of heat through the walls takes
a long time, no heat can escape. During the
moving of the piston, the temperature has risen
1000C. If the container contained 10 mol of an
ideal gas, how much work has been done during
the compression?
