Answer:
Thermodynamics.
Step-by-step explanation:
Thermodynamics can be defined as the study of heat transformation into other forms of energy.
Conduction involves the transfer of electric charge or thermal energy due to the movement of particles.
Generally, when conduction relates to electric charge, it is known as electrical conduction while when it relates to thermal energy, it is known as heat conduction.
In the process of heat conduction, thermal energy is usually transferred from fast moving particles to slow moving particles during the collision of these particles. Also, thermal energy is typically transferred between objects that has different degrees of temperature and materials (particles) that are directly in contact with each other but differ in their ability to accept or give up electrons.
In Thermodynamics, heat are generally transformed to various forms of energy such as light energy.
The Law of Conservation of Energy states that energy cannot be destroyed but can only be converted or transformed from one form to another. Therefore, the sum of the initial kinetic energy and potential energy is equal to the sum of the final kinetic energy and potential energy.
Mathematically, it is given by the formula;
Ki + Ui = Kf + Uf .......equation 1
Where;
Ki and Kf are the initial and final kinetic energy respectively.
Ui and Uf are the initial and final potential energy respectively.
Additionally, the Law of Conservation of Energy is another way to describe the First Law of Thermodynamics and it states that the change of the internal energy of a system is equal to the sum of work and heat spent on it.
Mathematically, the First Law of Thermodynamics is given by the formula;
ΔU = Q − W
Where;
ΔU represents the change in internal energy of a system.
Q represents the net heat transfer in and out of the system.
W represents the sum of work (net work) done on or by the system.
