In this figure, 10 calories of heat are added to each of the two samples of the same gas. Why is T1 greater than T2?
 a. There are fewer atoms or molecules in the smaller object, so each atom (molecule) must move more vigorously for a given amount of heat (energy) transferred to the material.
  b. The thermometer is able to absorb heat from the smaller object more rapidly.
  c. This follows from the ideal gas law.

Question 2

What is the zeroth law of thermodynamics?
 a. Energy is always conserved in thermodynamic processes.
  b. Momentum is always conserved.
  c. The pressure of a fluid decreases as its velocity increases.
  d. If two objects are in thermal equilibrium with a third object, they are in thermal equilibrium with each other.
  e. If a = c and b = c, then a = b.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
