THERMAL PHYSICS

Leading to GASES HEAT TEMPERATURE SCALES
Thermal physics is the combined study of thermodynamics, statistical mechanics, and kinetic theory. This umbrella-subject is typically designed for physics students and functions to provide a general introduction to each of three core heat-related subjects. Other authors, however, define thermal physics loosely as a summation of only thermodynamics and statistical mechanics. [image:http://i.imgur.com/pyj9dv2.jpg]
