Calculation of $C_v$ and $C_p$
What literary translation is given to the notation : $c_{v}$ and $c_{p}$?
c: specific heat capacity.
v, p index : at constant volume, pressure.
What is the use of adding the same symbol in the right …

Temperature scale from equation of state
Thermometric scale:
Consider a system characterized by two independent variables, $x$ and $y$ for example. When the values of $x$ and $y$ remain constant, as long as the external environment is not …

Formula for the heat input in a heat engine
We consider a motor operating cyclically between a hot(B=h) and a cold (A=c) source, according to the first and second principles of tehrmodynamics, for a dithermic engine, we have:$$\begin{cases} W+Q …

Prerequisites for Landau's Statistical Physics (volume 5)
In my opinion, it is necessary to read volume III of quantum mechanics, it is like being in an arid desert, all the provisions are good to have, a little different style but with the time one starts t …

Derive $\vec F = P \vec A$ using BBGKY hierarchy?
According to your link $\mathbf{F}_{i}=-\frac{\partial \Phi_{i}^{ext}}{\partial q_{i}}$
the interaction potential $\Phi_{i,j} $ is assumed to be zero.
we know that: $F=-\frac{\partial E}{\partial r}\; …

Partial derivatives vs total derivatives in thermodynamics
I consulted wikipedia, I found the following definition
$$df=\frac{\partial f}{\partial x_{1}}dx_{1}+...+\frac{\partial f}{\partial x_{n}}dx_{n}$$
it is written after "In the one-dimensional case this …

Chapman–Enskog theory and a Noether's invariant of energy?
I did not understand all of them, but I will make an ad hoc link:$$D=\bar{v}l=\bar{v}\frac{kT}{\bar{F}}$$
with:$\;\;\bar{F}l_{x}=kT\;\;,\;\;\bar{P}=\frac{N\bar{F}}{l_{y}l_{z}}\;\;,\;\;\bar{P}V=NkT\;\; …

Vapor Compression Refrigeration Cycle
In practice, the point 4 must be beyond the saturation curve (more to the right), it is an overheating of the gas to avoid a cold blow to the piston of the compressor.
PS: It is necessary to limit the …

Back-of-the-envelope estimate of thermodynamic cost of food absorbtion from first principles
So not all cellular transport (separation:extracellular to intracellular or vice versa) mechanisms are energy consuming, there are passive mechanisms:
Active transport is the movement of a substance …
