DIFFRENCE BETWEEN HEAT AND WORK !

HEAT and WORK plays vital role in thermodynamics.

Its very common misunderstanding between peoples that they are ENERGY but they are not energy they are medium by which we transfer energy .

although they don't seem to be identical because heat is thermal property and work is mechanical property but they are same , at microscopic level they both are same phenomenon .

HEAT

They are just moving of molecules , having difference is only , heat is moving of molecules disorderly in any direction OR in other words heat is microscopic collision of molecules .

WORK

Work is moving of molecules in only single direction OR in other words work is macroscopic push and pulls ( given by product of force and displacement ) . both shares same SI unit as JOULE .

We termed work as high grade energy and heat as low grade energy

Because in reversible or irreversible process we can convert work 100 % in heat we can convert heat into work 100 % in irreversible process but we can't convert heat with 100% efficiency in work by performing reversible process .

like nature don't want to welcome reversible process in clique with heat , when we convert heat in work while performing reversible process some heat always losses and this fact became to call work as high grade and heat as low grade energy .

Positive and negative values of WORK (W)and HEAT(Q)

W > 0 when a gas is compressed. Energy is transferred into system.

W < 0 when a gas expands. Energy is transferred out of system.

Q > 0 when the environment is at a higher temperature than the system. Energy is transferred into system.

Q < 0 when the system is at a higher temperature than the environment. Energy is transferred out of system.

CONVERSION OF HEAT & WORK

Conversion of heat in to work happens at some specific rate you can call it conversion rate of this two thermodynamics coordinate's -

4.18J=1 CALORIE OF HEAT

and its your WILL to use any method to change work in heat or vice-versa ,but to produce 1 calorie of heat you always have to do 4.18 J of work also known as mechanical equivalent of heat or joule's equivalent .

WHAT IS NANOTECHNOLOGY ?

N anotechnology is the science of manipulation of matter according to our need at the Nanoscale of the order of 10^-2 . it have tremendous possibilities in near future because of its ability of making advance material with unique chemical property which suits according to condition . This term technically first time introduced by physicist Richard Feynman in 1959 in his lecture with topic of There is plenty of room at the bottom . but at that time technology was not enough to implementation of his idea in practical application's . Primarily there is two type of approaches we use to construct anything - I) Top-to-bottom approach II) Bottom-to-top approach Top-to-bottom approach :- when we cutoff resource to make our desirable shape is known as Top-to-bottom approach ; Ex- wooden chair . Bottom-to-top approach :- when we construct structure by starting from its minute cells to approaching required shape of structure is known...

SUM OF INFINITE SERIES BY RAMANUJAN

I n this blog i am going to discuss about something very strange important but strange a master piece from a Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan , who who discovered something mind blowing . So if i ask you what is the sum of all natural number more likely you will answer "infinity" and like always genius personalities has something different opinion just like srinivasa Ramanujan . Lets see how 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9 . . . . . . Became -1/12 Let's take a infinite series S1 - S 1 = 1-1+1-1+1-1+1-1+1-1+1 . . . . . . lets do little maneuver with it like we always do in mathematics - S1 = (1-1)+(1-1)+(1-1)+(1-1)+(1-1)+(1-1). . . . . . we are just taking brackets at first on "plus one" and than closing it after...

WHAT IS LIGHT EMMITING DIODE ?

LED is a very commonly used device nowadays we use it in various application because of its small size and,cheap prize its very popular among peoples . we use it even in special television set for screen as LED pixels which is useful for clarity for distance audience . basically it is a diode which is set to be in forward condition . Full form of LED is LIGHT EMITTING DIODE . As evident from name it is diode who produce photon when voltage is given to it . this type of diode is not made by generally used semiconductor's like silicon and germanium it manufactured by arsenic phosphorus and gallium . various types of color can can be produced by changing quantities of material it made up of . WORKING - Basically it is like a normal diode just difference with it produces light when a forward voltage applied to it . as we know electron needs energy to jump from lower orbit to higher orbit , the working of LED is typically reverse of this process electr...
