    for their guidance and support in completing this project. I am also thankful to my parents

    Objective
    The objective of this project is to study the principles of heat and thermodynamics, explore
    the laws governing them, and understand their applications in everyday life.
    Introduction
    Heat and thermodynamics are fundamental topics in physics that deal with energy transfer,
    temperature, and the behavior of systems. Thermodynamics focuses on the relationships
    between heat, work, and energy, providing the foundation for understanding phenomena
    such as engines, refrigeration, and climate processes. This project explores the key
    principles of thermodynamics and their applications.
    Theory
    Heat and thermodynamics revolve around several fundamental concepts:

    1. **Heat**: A form of energy transfer that occurs due to a temperature difference.


    2. **Temperature**: A measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a system.
    3. **Laws of Thermodynamics**:
    - **Zeroth Law**: Establishes the concept of temperature and thermal equilibrium.
    - **First Law**: States that energy cannot be created or destroyed; it only changes forms.
    - **Second Law**: States that entropy (disorder) of an isolated system always increases
    over time.
    - **Third Law**: As temperature approaches absolute zero, the entropy of a system
    approaches a constant minimum.

    Key formulas:
    - Heat transfer: Q = mcΔT
    - Work done: W = PΔV
    - Efficiency of a heat engine: η = (Work output / Heat input) × 100%
    Experimental Setup/Procedure
    1. Gather materials: A calorimeter, thermometer, heat source, and sample materials like
    water and metal.
    2. Measure the initial temperature of the sample.
    3. Apply heat and record the temperature changes over time.
    4. Calculate the heat transfer using Q = mcΔT.
    5. Analyze results to verify the principles of thermodynamics.
    6. Repeat the experiment with different materials to compare specific heat capacities.
    Observations and Calculations
    Observation Table:

    | Material | Initial Temp (°C) | Final Temp (°C) | Mass (kg) | Heat Transfer (J) |
    |----------|-------------------|-----------------|-----------|-------------------|
    | Water | | | | |
    | Copper | | | | |
    Results
    The experiment demonstrated the transfer of heat between the system and its
    surroundings. Different materials exhibited unique specific heat capacities, validating the
    theoretical predictions of thermodynamics.
    Conclusion
    This project explored the fundamental principles of heat and thermodynamics. It was
    observed that the transfer of energy in the form of heat is governed by material properties,
    mass, and temperature changes. The experimental results aligned with theoretical
    calculations, reinforcing the laws of thermodynamics.
