Heat – study of thermal science 1.1 Temperature Temperature is the measure of hotness and coldness of an object. [However, coldness and hotness depends on our objective sense. Therefore, we should define temperature in another subjective way] Examples of temperature Body temperature = Room temperature = Sun’s surface temperature = Earth’s core temperature = Melting point of water = Boiling point of water = 1.1.1 Temperature Scale Temperature scale is obtained by choosing two fixed points There are two common temperature scale. One is Celsius scale. The other is Kelvin scale - Celsius Scale Low fixed point = melting point of water at s.t.p.= 0 o C Upper fixed point = boiling point of water at s.t.p. = 100 o C (s.t.p. is standard temperature and pressure) - Kelvin Scale Absolute zero: the lowest possible temperature an object can attain = 0 K = - 273 o C - Used to define the lower bound of the Kelvin scale - Atoms freeze at absolute zero - By Thermodynamics 3 rd Law , no object can attain absolute zero Lower limit for temperature : YES Upper limit for high temperature : NO ~ Temperature interval of 1 o C = temperature interval of 1
