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...

CAN WE PRODUCE CLEAN ENERGY ?

World is full of advancement today from previous era , we have astounding facilities good lifestyle better food and more but did you ever feel amazed how all of this possible today which was impossible before , all of this happens because of our developed technology of converting energy from one form to another with increased efficiency . but we are again at the bank of river of question's , question which is seducing me from past several months and its attempt to draw my attention is legal too because of our current condition a problem of ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION who is grown up baby now of our human race and its age is from industrial revolution to today's date . if i play little maneuver to our problem of environmental pollution to a QUESTION as " is there any way to get immense treasure of clean energy ? " like we usually do in mathematics , and if yes than how , here the clean energy source ...

NOTION OF TIME BEFORE ALBERT !

I n ancient Greek philosophy one of the two philosopher who influenced entire western philosophy was Aristotle and Plato , Aristotle was student of Plato due to his extraordinary brilliance his master Plato said " the mind of academy " in his respect . A philosopher who gave his contribution nearly to every subject that exists in that era , according to Aristotle . " Time is nothing but measurement of change " A classical way of giving definition about something,lets again pay little attention to chosen word's here "time" a subject about which he gave his opinion then "nothing but" this words makes sure it is only "measurement of change" or change in temporal world we live in . that means there will be no time if everything around us directly or indirectly frozen even our brain nerves are frozen so we cant even notice that nothing is changing . in my opinion...
