Thermodynamics
1-1C Classical thermodynamics is based on experimental observations whereas statistical thermodynamics is based on the
average behavior of large groups of particles.
1-2C On a downhill road the potential energy of the bicyclist is being converted to kinetic energy, and thus the bicyclist
picks up speed. There is no creation of energy, and thus no violation of the conservation of energy principle.
LU
1-3C A car going uphill without the engine running would increase the energy of the car, and thus it would be a violation of
the first law of thermodynamics. Therefore, this cannot happen. Using a level meter (a device with an air bubble between
two marks of a horizontal water tube) it can shown that the road that looks uphill to the eye is actually downhill.
XE
1-4C There is no truth to his claim. It violates the second law of thermodynamics.
Mass, Force, and Units
LI
1-5C Kg-mass is the mass unit in the SI system whereas kg-force is a force unit. 1-kg-force is the force required to accelerate
a 1-kg mass by 9.807 m/s2. In other words, the weight of 1-kg mass at sea level is 1 kg-force.
BR
1-6C In this unit, the word light refers to the speed of light. The light-year unit is then the product of a velocity and time.
Hence, this product forms a distance dimension and unit.
AR
1-7C There is no acceleration, thus the net force is zero in both cases.
1-8 The variation of gravitational acceleration above the sea level is given as a function of altitude. The height at which the
Y
weight of a body will decrease by 0.3% is to be determined.
z
Analysis The weight of a body at the elevation z can be expressed as
W mg m(9.807 332
. 106 z)
In our case,
W (1 0.)Ws 0.997Ws 0.997mg s 0.997(m)(9.807)
Substituting, 0
