It's time to heat things up! LITERALLY! It's time for Hank to talk about the history of Thermodynamics!!! It's messy and there are a lot of people who came up with some ideas that worked and other that didn't and then some ideas that should have come first actually were figured out second.

This episode makes it more understandable how scientists at the time thought that they were just on the brink of solving science and creating a unified theory of everything. Like thermodynamics just showed up and suddenly made a ton of connections, it seemed only a matter of time and experimentation before we'd have a working theory of everything. However ovens happened.

I thought of an idea for a new little side series: Crash Course Spotlight. It would be a series where people who were talked about in different crash course series get their own videos to be talked about in more depth. So for example Hank Green and Dr. Somara would have an episode where they talk about Nicolas Carnot (as he was talked about in both the Engineering series and here on the History of Science series). They would go over his importance to both of those series, and then go into more detail about his life and work. It could even just be added material for the Crash Course Recess series as well. Either way I think it would be nice to give light to how the work of different people have shaped many fields in multiple ways.

As of now, we all know that the branch of physical science that deals with the relations between heat and other forms of energy such us mechanical, electrical, or chemical energy and by extension of the relationship between all forms of energy is the thermodynamics. Altoine Lavoisier used the caloric theory which he explained heat transfer as an either colorless fluid that migrated from a body at a higher temperature to one another. Thanks for this video.

Linda Vilma Ole This video very means alot to all of us. Especially fir those students:) thanks to mr.hank:) Now, we are aware that the first Law of Thermodynamics or Conservation states that energy is always conserved, it cannot be created or destroyed. In essence, energy can be converted from one form into another. As of now we all know that the branch of physical science that deals with the relations between heat and other forms of energy such as mechanical, electrical, or chemical energy and, by extension, of the relationships between all forms of energy is the Thermodynamics. Im addition to, during my CBP I've for my physics instructor that the dynamis is the causes of motion, so definitely the energy movement is caused by the thermodynamics, the word dynamics.

"The musconception of many regarding air-conditioned room were they said that if the door will be open, the cold temperature will go out, so it should be closed otherwise." It is badly a big mistake. It is actually because of the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics which states that the cold temperature will never flow on hot temperature, thus it is the heat temperature that flows on. In this reason, it wrong that the cold temperature from a air-conditioned room will go out, yet it is the heat temperature that goes in, physically. The discovery of Thermodynamics enjoined the different chemists, physicist, mathematicians and engineers to engage on this field. Rumford who contributed on how heat was made where he used to bore a Canon and identify heat as a Calory. It was then recognized as a wrong idea since heat is actually energy. The idea on steam also were actually used to make objects move like the used of machines with steam engines. Thanks to this ideas. They're unexceptional brilliant people.

Thermodynamics or the physics of heat temperature energy and and work doesn't really have a Darwin and Wallace. Antoine Lavoisier used the caloric theory which he explained heat transfer as an ether or colorless fluid that migrated from a body at a higher temperature to one. However, the video inspires me because I don't have any background regarding heat. But now thankfully I saw the video. Thanks to the brilliant ideas.

How ironic to think on how they study this thermodynamics, If i were in their time i am absolutely dumb founded, just imagine HEAT will gave importance to study? But well anyway due to their curiousity we have huge knowledge about this thing. If they dont study this, we will not know about temperatures which is somehow very important for us to our health and safety. I am very much proud of those people who contributed in this topic.
