Temperature graph of a certain experiment

AI Thread Summary
A temperature graph that forms a straight line on the Celsius scale will also appear as a straight line on the Kelvin scale, as both scales are linear and have a constant offset. The key difference between Celsius and Kelvin is that Kelvin starts at absolute zero, making it a true thermodynamic scale. Understanding this relationship is crucial for interpreting temperature data accurately. Self-research, such as looking up Kelvin temperature on Google, is encouraged for deeper comprehension. This approach fosters better learning and understanding of temperature measurement concepts.

If the temperature graph of a certain experiment formed a straight line when recorded on the Celsius scale, discuss what a graph of the same experiment on the Kelvin scale would look like.

Do you know the difference between Celcius and Kelvin?
 
No, I do not...I am taking an online class so there isn't much instruction.
 
Then go to "google.com" and enter "Kelvin temperature"!

Finding out for yourself is a lot better than being told.

Thread 'Entropy and configurations of microstates'

I was watching a Khan Academy video on entropy called: Reconciling thermodynamic and state definitions of entropy. So in the video it says: Let's say I have a container. And in that container, I have gas particles and they're bouncing around like gas particles tend to do, creating some pressure on the container of a certain volume. And let's say I have n particles. Now, each of these particles could be in x different states. Now, if each of them can be in x different states, how many total...

Thread 'Why work is PdV and not (P+dP)dV in an isothermal process?'

Let's say we have a cylinder of volume V1 with a frictionless movable piston and some gas trapped inside with pressure P1 and temperature T1. On top of the piston lay some small pebbles that add weight and essentially create the pressure P1. Also the system is inside a reservoir of water that keeps its temperature constant at T1. The system is in equilibrium at V1, P1, T1. Now let's say i put another very small pebble on top of the piston (0,00001kg) and after some seconds the system...
