1
Q
Energy flows from
A
hotter objects/environments to cooler ones
2
Q
Thermal Equilibrium (definition)
A
- two objects in contact with each other at the same temperature are said to be in thermal equilibrium
- there is no net energy flow between the objects
3
Q
Law of Thermal Equilibrium
A
If body A and body B are in equilibrium and body A and body C are in equilibrium then body B and body C must be in equilibrium
