    Application of the conservation of energy principle to systems. Standard assumptions made about heat transfer and work in such applications. Includes multiple worked examples.
  • 5.1: Four Questions
    https://eng.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Introductory_Engineering/Basic_Engineering_Science_-_A_Systems_Accounting_and_Modeling_Approach_(Richards)/05%3A_Conservation_of_Linear_Momentum/5.01%3A_Four_Questions
    Answering the four basic questions needed to develop an accurate accounting equation for the linear momentum of a system: What is linear momentum? How can it be stored in a system? How can it be trans...Answering the four basic questions needed to develop an accurate accounting equation for the linear momentum of a system: What is linear momentum? How can it be stored in a system? How can it be transported? How can it be created or destroyed?
  • Basic Engineering Science - A Systems, Accounting, and Modeling Approach (Richards)
    https://eng.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Introductory_Engineering/Basic_Engineering_Science_-_A_Systems_Accounting_and_Modeling_Approach_(Richards)

By focusing on the underlying concepts and stressing the similarities between subjects that are often perceived by students (and taught by faculty) as unconnected topics, this approach provides engineering students a foundational framework for recognizing and building connections.
  • 8.2: Empirical and Thermodynamic Temperature
    https://eng.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Introductory_Engineering/Basic_Engineering_Science_-_A_Systems_Accounting_and_Modeling_Approach_(Richards)/08%3A_Entropy_Production_and_Accounting/8.02%3A_Empirical_and_Thermodynamic_Temperature
    Defining empirical temperature and thermodynamic temperature. The concept of a thermodynamic temperature scale, and conversions between empirical and thermodynamic temperature scales.
  • 3.5: Accounting of Chemical Species
    https://eng.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Introductory_Engineering/Basic_Engineering_Science_-_A_Systems_Accounting_and_Modeling_Approach_(Richards)/03%3A_Conservation_of_Mass/3.05%3A_Accounting_of_Chemical_Species
    Accounting for systems of chemical species through conservation of mass, in systems both with and without chemical reactions. Includes multiple worked examples.
  • 5.2: Conservation of Linear Momentum Equation
    https://eng.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Introductory_Engineering/Basic_Engineering_Science_-_A_Systems_Accounting_and_Modeling_Approach_(Richards)/05%3A_Conservation_of_Linear_Momentum/5.02%3A_Conservation_of_Linear_Momentum_Equation
    Applying the equation for conservation of linear momentum to open, closed, and steady-state systems. Includes multiple worked examples.
