Laws of Thermodynamics and Carnot's Theorem
Zeroth law of thermodynamics
Consider two systems A and B separated by an adiabatic wall. If these two are in contact with a system C through a diathermal wall, then by experiment it is seen that the two sysytem A and B re also in thermal equilibrium with eah other. This is known as the zeroth law of thermodynamics and can be stated as, if two systems are in thermal equilibrium with third system, then they must be in thermal equilibrium with each other.
First law of thermodynamics
It can be stated in two forms. The first form establishes the relation between the equivalence of heat energy and mechanical work. It can be stated as, if a definite quantity of heat is applied to do work, then mechanical work is obtained in same amount as heat consumed. Conversely, if mechanical work is done then each unit of heat energy is produced due to mechanical work. If Q be the amount of heat employed in a system due to which W is the work done produced, then,\begin{align*} W\propto Q \end{align*}\begin{align*} or, W=JQ \end{align*} where, J is the mechanical equivalent of heat whose value is 4.2 Joules per calorie. This form is valid only when energy supplied is used in doing work.
The first law of thermodynamics can also be considered in another form as the special case of conservation of energy. If \(dQ\) be the amount of heat given to the system, \(dU\) be the change in internal energy and \(dW\) be the small workdone, the first law says that,\begin{align*} dQ=dU+dW \end{align*}
Second law of thermodynamics
Second law of thermodynamics was introduced to remove the limitations of the first law. It is also stated in two ways:
Kelvin Planck statement: It is impossible to get a continuous supply of heat from a body by cooling it to a temperature lower than that of coldest of its surroundings.
Clausius statement: It is impossible to make heat flow from a body at a lower temperature to a body at a higher temperature without doing external work on the working substance.
These two statements are equivalent to each other.
