Thermal Physics
This lesson will introduce the concepts of thermal physics, which deals with the study of heat, temperature and thermodynamic processes. We will begin by discussing temperature and heat, and their relationship with energy. We will then cover thermal expansion, which describes how the size and shape of an object changes with temperature changes. We will also delve into heat transfer, which is the movement of heat energy from one place to another. Additionally, we will cover the first and second laws of thermodynamics which describe the conservationThe professional care, preservation, and restoration of archaeological materials and sites, often requiring scientific expertise. and dissipation of energy in thermodynamic systems.
