  2. Mpemba effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mpemba_effect

    They showed the time for freezing to start was longest with an initial temperature of 25 °C (77 °F) and that it was much less at around 90 °C (194 °F). They ruled out loss of liquid volume by evaporation and the effect of dissolved air as significant factors. In their setup, most heat loss was found to be from the liquid surface. [10]

  3. 21 grams experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/21_grams_experiment

    His experiment showed that seven of the adult sheep varied their weight upon dying, though not losing it, but rather gaining an amount of 18 to 780 grams, which was lost again over time until returning to their initial weight. [10] In 2009, Hollander Jr.'s experiment was subjected to critical review by Masayoshi Ishida in the same journal ...

  4. Newton's law of cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_law_of_cooling

    The statement of Newton's law used in the heat transfer literature puts into mathematics the idea that the rate of heat loss of a body is proportional to the difference in temperatures between the body and its surroundings. For a temperature-independent heat transfer coefficient, the statement is:

  5. Calorimetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calorimetry

    Calorimetry requires that a reference material that changes temperature have known definite thermal constitutive properties. The classical rule, recognized by Clausius and Kelvin, is that the pressure exerted by the calorimetric material is fully and rapidly determined solely by its temperature and volume; this rule is for changes that do not involve phase change, such as melting of ice.

  6. History of thermodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_thermodynamics

    The history of thermodynamics is a fundamental strand in the history of physics, the history of chemistry, and the history of science in general. Due to the relevance of thermodynamics in much of science and technology, its history is finely woven with the developments of classical mechanics, quantum mechanics, magnetism, and chemical kinetics, to more distant applied fields such as ...

  7. Caloric theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caloric_theory

    The world's first ice-calorimeter, used in the winter of 1782–83, by Antoine Lavoisier and Pierre-Simon Laplace, to determine the heat involved in various chemical changes; calculations which were based on Joseph Black’s prior discovery of latent heat. These experiments mark the foundation of thermochemistry.

    Here’s what she’s shared about her weight loss. She slammed Ozempic rumors. In the August 2024 chat, Ice Spice came out swinging against the rumors that she took Ozempic for weight loss.

  9. Thermogravimetric analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermogravimetric_analysis

    Thermogravimetric analysis or thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) is a method of thermal analysis in which the mass of a sample is measured over time as the temperature changes. . This measurement provides information about physical phenomena, such as phase transitions, absorption, adsorption and desorption; as well as chemical phenomena including chemisorptions, thermal decomposition, and ...
