In mechanics,work done(work=force.displacement of body) by a body is independent of path.It only depends on the initial and final state of the body.However in thermodynamics,the work done by an ideal gas(work=pressure.change in volume of gas) depends on the path taken(isochoric,isothermal,isobaric,adiabatic)

What are some examples of work not done?
Work is said to be done where certain displacement is involved. Ex. Of work not done is Coolie carrying Load on his head..
Is work done if you push a car that has run out of gas?
Yes. The work is being done by whoever is pushing rather then the engine, but work is being done. Any time a force is applied through a distance, work is being done.
How do you calculate work done on an object .?
The equation to calculate the work done is: Work done (J) = force applied (n) x distance moved of force (m)
Why work and heat transfer are not property of the system?
irstly from Thermodynamics point of view, we need to call heat as Heat transfer. Both Heat and work transfer are energies in transit. They come into picture only when a process is taking place. Also the quantity of heat transfer depends on the type of process or path followed. So Heat Transfer is a path function but not a property(which is a point function). 📷 In case of properties, the difference in properties (here P2-P1 or V2- V1)between state 1 and state 2 always remains same irrespective of the path followed. So properties are called Exact Differentials or Point functions. But in case of Heat transfer and Work transfer, the quantity of heat and work transfer between state 1 and state 2 depends on the path followed. Therefore heat and work transfer are not exact differentials,they are Inexact differentials or path functions.
What does the word 'function' means in science class?
Function is a science class means work, or what it does.
Why isn't work a state function?
Because work is a function of individuals. Organizations, even governments, don't do work. People do.
What is a nesting function in Microsoft Excel terms?
Nesting a function is putting one function inside another. This can be done for more complex formulas. Nesting has to be done carefully as it is easy to make mistakes and get the wrong results, or for the formula not to work at all.
Function of the executive branch?
To get Government jobs done, enforce the laws and carry out the work of the government
If work done on an object is equal to object's change in kinetic energy this the state of?
the Work-Energy Theorem states the work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy.
Is in adiabatic process the work done is independent of path?
YES.. By first law of thermodynamics, dQ=dW+dU For adiabatic process dQ=0 dW=-dU Above relation shows that the work done is equal to change in internal energy in magnitude which is the property of the system or point function. Thus work done in adiabatic process is a point function.
Why work done is not a function of time?
Work is the scalar product of Force acting and displacement produced in the direction of the force. So it is independent of time.
Is enthalpy a state function?
Yes it is state function
State the two factors that determine the amount of work done on an object?
Energy and pressure
Can you get married in state prison in pa?
YES YOU CAN. It takes some time and work but it can be done.
Has Cristiano Ronaldo had his teeth done?
After his dental work they're definitely WHITE but before the dental work his teeth were a right state.
What is meant by a registered firearm?
Paper work done IAW local, state or federal law.
