24
Q

Heat

A

Total kinetic energy of molecules of a substance
Heat energy flows from increased heat to area w/ lower heat energy (hotter to cooler substance) = heat exchange
Energy in form of kinetic energy - resides w/in molecules of the substance
Thermal gradient or conductance
Measurement of substance’s ability to conduct (exchange) heat = thermal conductivity

25
Temperature
Thermal state of substance which determines whether it will give heat to another substance or receive heat from another Average kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance 1L 80°C vs. 3L 80°C water bottle - same temperature 3L will give off more heat Take 0.5L from each = equal temp and heat
26
Endothermic Process
State of matter change that requires heat input Chemical example: A + B + Heat = C Physical change: Ice → Water (add heat)
27
Exothermic Process
``` State of matter change that required output of heat energy or energy flow out of the system Giving off heat (output) Steam → water → ice Gas → liquid → solid Heat liberated/released ```
28

41
Atmospheric Pressure
Pressure exerted by the weight of the atmosphere that varies w/ altitude Airplane cabin pressurized at 30,000ft to prevent hypoxia d/t low air pressure at high altitudes
42
Ambient Pressure
Refers to pressure of the medium in which a specific object is located; environment in at any given moment Ex: Hyperbaric chamber, or diving underwater
43
Variable Orifice Tube
Flowmeter increased diameter as flow increases to decrease resistance Pressure remains constant despite ↑ flow P = Q x R ↑ flow ↓ resistance (↑ diameter) More turbulent flow as diameter increases (float bounces more than at low flow rates when laminar flow present)
44
Dew Point
Temperature at which (if volume of air cooled) moisture precipitates out Measure of humidity in the air Air more loaded w/ water vapor more likely for water to condense out Higher dew point = more moisture in the air (saturated) Increased temp when water condenses - condensation
45
Bernoulli's Theorem
``` ↓ diameter ↑ velocity Constant flow TE1 = TE2 KE1 +PE1 = KE2 + PE2 Therefore ↑KE ↓PE Result ↓ pressure energy ```
46
Venturi Effect
Constriction allows second gas to be drawn inward (suction) and mixed w/ the first gas therefore diluting Venturi masks - port open to room air ↓ diameter ↑ suction ↑ dilution ↓ O2 concentration 40% O2 ↑ diameter 24% O2 ↓ diameter (narrower opening)
47
Pressure Relief Valve
Spring exerts particular force on disc w/ particular surface area - valve requires particular pressure w/in to open Pressure in tube > valve pressure Valve pushed upward revealing vents through which pressure can dissipate Spring pressure (stiffness) can be adjusted to calculate pressure required to open the valve "Pop-off" valve Ambu bag
48
Pressure Reducing Valve
High pressure enters the valve pushing upward against the diaphragm downward force produced by the spring (resistance) Pressure energy required to do work moving the diaphragm therefore lower pressure exits gas outlet Work + energy required Ex: Oxygen tank
49
Force/Energy/Work Relationship
Pushing an object in a certain direction involves applying a force, which does work, and energy must be expended Force - influence that causes a change in the motion of an object aka acceleration; method to transfer energy Work - exertion of force to produce movement Energy - expended when work is done (to apply force some amount of energy is required; energy transferred to object)
50
