Description
When a system changes from a given initial state to a given final state, both the work W and the heat Q depend on the nature of
the process. Experimentally, however, we find that the quantity Q – W is the same for all processes. It depends only on the initial and final states, and does not depend at all on how the system gets from one state to the other. All other combinations of Q and W, including Q alone, W alone, Q + W, and Q - 2W, are path dependent; only the quantity Q – W is not.

ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT ANALYSIS
Trending!
A circuit diagram can be analyzed by breaking down the schematics of a circuit, simplifying the resistors into one, and applying fundamental laws of physics. There are three main circuit analysis techniques: the fundamental laws, using the node voltage method or the mesh current method.

Principles of electrical machines
Trending!
An electric generator is a machine that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. An electric generator is based on the principle that whenever flux is cut by a conductor, an e.m.f. is induced which will cause a current to flow if the conductor circuit is closed. The direction of induced e.m.f. (and hence current) is given by Fleming’s right hand rule.
