Solid State Physics
Thermodynamics is the branch of physics that deals with the relationships between heat, work, temperature, and energy. It provides a set of principles that govern the behavior of systems in thermal equilibrium and describes how energy is transferred and transformed within those systems. Understanding thermodynamics is essential for analyzing phenomena such as heat engines, refrigeration, and the thermoelectric effects, where temperature differences can generate electric voltage.
