4B Heat and the First Law

  • 4B10. Heat Capacity and Specific Heat
    • 4B10.70 Ruchardt’s Tube A container of gas has a long glass tube emerging from the top. A ball dropped into the tube oscillates.
  • 4B15. Ratio of Specific Heats
  • 4B20. Convection
  • 4B30. Conduction
  • 4B40. Radiation
    • 4B40.10 Light the Match Use the focal point of two mirrors to light a match using radiation.
    • 4B40.10 Focusing IR Radiation Variation of “Light the Match” except that there is but one lens/mirror and the light is at one focal point and the paper is held at the other focal point.
    • 4B40.40 Three Can Radiation Using an IR thermometer, measure a shiny, white, and black can filled with boiling water in order to show the differences in temperature.
  • 4B50. Heat Transfer Applications
  • 4B60. Mechanical Equivalent of Heat
  • 4B70. Adiabatic Processes
