  2. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle

    Bernoulli's principle is a key concept in fluid dynamics that relates pressure, density, speed and height. Bernoulli's principle states that an increase in the speed of a parcel of fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in either the pressure or the height above a datum. [1]:

  3. Energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy

    The speed of a chemical reaction (at a given temperature T) is related to the activation energy E by the Boltzmann's population factor e −E/kT; that is, the probability of a molecule to have energy greater than or equal to E at a given temperature T.

  4. Ideal gas law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_gas_law

    Isotherms of an ideal gas for different temperatures. The curved lines are rectangular hyperbolae of the form y = a/x. They represent the relationship between pressure (on the vertical axis) and volume (on the horizontal axis) for an ideal gas at different temperatures: lines that are farther away from the origin (that is, lines that are nearer to the top right-hand corner of the diagram ...

  5. BBC Bitesize - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBC_Bitesize

    GCSE Bitesize was launched in January 1998, covering seven subjects. For each subject, a one- or two-hour long TV programme would be broadcast overnight in the BBC Learning Zone block, and supporting material was available in books and on the BBC website. At the time, only around 9% of UK households had access to the internet at home.

  6. Kinetic theory of gases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_theory_of_gases

    The mathematical similarities between the expressions for shear viscocity, thermal conductivity and diffusion coefficient of the ideal (dilute) gas is not a coincidence; It is a direct result of the Onsager reciprocal relations (i.e. the detailed balance of the reversible dynamics of the particles), when applied to the convection (matter flow ...

  7. Le Chatelier's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Chatelier's_principle

    The principle is named after French chemist Henry Louis Le Chatelier who enunciated the principle in 1884 by extending the reasoning from the Van 't Hoff relation of how temperature variations changes the equilibrium to the variations of pressure and what's now called chemical potential, [3] [4] and sometimes also credited to Karl Ferdinand ...

    the mass number or nucleon number of an element in chemistry [6] the Helmholtz free energy of a closed thermodynamic system of constant pressure and temperature [7] a vector potential, in electromagnetics it can refer to the magnetic vector potential [8] with a subscript, an alternating group on that many objects; an Abelian group in abstract ...

  9. Specific heat capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_heat_capacity

    The pressure would be equal to the pressure applied to it by the enclosure or some surrounding fluid, such as air. The state of the material can then be specified by three parameters: its temperature T {\displaystyle T} , the pressure P {\displaystyle P} , and its specific volume ν = V / M {\displaystyle \nu =V/M} , where V {\displaystyle V ...
