The thermometer has _____________
temperature as the object.
Have you ever wondered why your
hands feel warm when you hold a hot
cup of tea or cold when you touch ice?
What do you think determines these
sensations?
Have you ever wondered why we use
different scales to measure temperature,
like Celsius and Fahrenheit?
How do you think these scales are related
to our understanding of heat and cold?
Can you think of a time when you felt
the need to adjust the temperature in a
room or a device?
What factors do you think influence
these adjustments?

Zeroth Law of
Thermodynamics
& Temperature Measurements
Learning
Competency:
Explain the connection between the Zeroth Law of
Thermodynamics, temperature, thermal equilibrium,
and temperature scales. (STEM_GP12TH-IIG-49)
Objectives
At the end of the lesson, the learners are expected to:
1. Understand the concepts of heat, temperature,
internal energy, thermal equilibrium, and
temperature scales in relation to the Zeroth Law of
Thermodynamics;
2. Convert between temperature scales; and
3. Relate the Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics to real-
life concerns and situations.

Zeroth Law of thermodynamics

An illustration of the zeroth law of thermodynamics.


If A & C are each in thermal equilibrium with B, then
A will be in thermal equilibrium with C when they
are brought into thermal contact.
Zeroth Law of thermodynamics

If two thermodynamic systems are both


in thermal equilibrium with a third
system, then they are in thermal
equilibrium with each other.
they share the same property called
temperature.
observed by Ralph H. Fowler in the 1930s
to ensure the objectivity
of temperature
measurement.
SI: Kelvin (K)
other temp. scales:
Celsius (°C),
Fahrenheit (°F),
Rankine (°R).
energy transferred from one obj. to another obj.;
direction of heat flow is always from hot to cold.

physical quantity expressing hotness or coldness


temperature scales: used to quantify temp. (K, °C, °F,°R).
absolute zero: coldest possible temp. (when all internal
vibration motion stops)

energy contained w/in a thermodynamic system

when all objs. in the system are at the same temp.


Relative Temperature Scale:
have arbitrary zero points and are based on reference amounts that are
more or less than a standard value

Fahrenheit CELSIUS

Absolute Temperature Scale:


have a true zero point & consistent across all users

kelvin RANKINE
