Key Points

  • The surface tension or interfacial tension, , is the force exerted by an interfacial surface per unit length.
  • The compression is done reversibly (very slowly), but non-adiabatically: the air receives heat through the walls throughout the process.
  • The efficiency of the Carnot engine cycle (7/6) is only reached if the turbine and compressor operate isentropically.
  • The force F sur exerted by the surroundings on the system is equal in magnitude to F sys and is directed in the opposite direction.
  • Newton's laws of motion are obeyed only in an inertial reference frame.
  • The meter,3 symbol m, is the SI unit of length.  Previous definition: The meter is the length of path traveled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1/(299 792 458) of a second.  Revised definition: No change from the previous definition.
