<p>Mmcintire8: /* Middling */</p> <hr /> <div>Claimed by Michelle McIntire M06<br /> ==Main Idea==<br /> <br /> Internal Energy, as referred to in Intro Physics, is energy within a system. When determining the specifics of internal energy it is best to refer to the real system of the interaction, rather than the point-particle system. The system may consist of internal interactions, such as spring interactions and thermal energy transfer. Internal Energy is any energy in the system other than movement of the center of mass.<br /> <br /> <br /> '''Internal Energy is fundamentally Potential Energy, Kinetic Energy, and Rest Energy. Broken down, this includes but is not limited to:'''<br /> <br /> <br /> Vibrational Energy: The potential energy of macroscopic springs cannot be modeled as a point particle system, and is often used to represent bonds between atoms in different materials.<br /> <br /> <br /> Thermal Energy: Thermal Energy is any <br /> energy in the form of heat, or changes in energy from heat transfer.<br /> <br /> <br /> Rotational Energy: Rotational energy is energy of real system about the center of mass.<br /> <br /> <br /> Chemical Energy: When a person runs, the change in kinetic energy of the runner is often affiliated with a loss in chemical energy.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ===A Mathematical Model===<br /> <br /> Determining change in Internal Energy from Change in Kinetic Energy.<br /> <br /> '''E'''internal= '''E'''thermal+'''E'''rotational+'''E'''vibrational+'''E'''chemical+...<br /> <br /> Because Energy is conserved if change in total Energy is 0, then:<br /> <br /> '''KE'''i + '''E'''internal= '''KE'''f + '''E'''internal<br /> <br /> Thus,<br /> <br /> Change in '''E'''internal = -Change in'''KE'''<br /> <br /> ===A Computational Model===<br /> <br /> You can use a computational model to track Kinetic Energy of the point-particle system. Using the change in this Kinetic Energy and the Change in Energy due to the surroundings we can determine the change in Internal Energy of a system.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> How do we visualize or predict using this topic.

<p>Mmcintire8: /* Main Idea */</p> <hr /> <div>Claimed by Michelle McIntire M06<br /> ==Main Idea==<br /> <br /> Internal Energy, as referred to in Intro Physics, is energy within a system. When determining the specifics of internal energy it is best to refer to the real system of the interaction, rather than the point-particle system. The system may consist of internal interactions, such as spring interactions and thermal energy transfer. When a system is inelastic, this means that kinetic energy is not conserved, and thus (due to conservation of energy) there is some change in internal energy.<br /> ===A Mathematical Model===<br /> <br /> What are the mathematical equations that allow us to model this topic. For example &lt;math&gt;{\frac{d\vec{p}}{dt}}_{system} = \vec{F}_{net}&lt;/math&gt; where '''p''' is the momentum of the system and '''F''' is the net force from the surroundings.<br /> <br /> ===A Computational Model===<br /> <br /> How do we visualize or predict using this topic.
